Tamiya 70232 Chain-Program Robot School Project Kit  [70232]

Tamiya 70232 Chain-Program Robot: Classroom Friendly Build

The Tamiya 70232 Chain-Program Robot is designed as an accessible educational model for learners exploring the basics of robotics and programming. It focuses on practical assembly and visible mechanical behaviour to support teaching and hobby use.

How the Chain Program Works

The robot moves by following a chain created from three link types that instruct forward, left and right turns. Users create a sequence of links to program the robot's route, and the kit runs on a single AA battery supplied by the builder.

Compatibility with Education Series Parts

Two Type 130 motors drive the model and the frame is drilled with 3mm holes so it can accept additional Tamiya Educational Construction Series plates and universal arms. The design provides room for a microcomputer for more complex coding, and it supports conversion to radio control with a separately acquired 2-channel controller and double gearbox.

Use in Learning Environments

Ideal for project-based learning, the Tamiya 70232 Chain-Program Robot demonstrates sequencing, simple mechanical systems and basic circuitry, making it useful for small group activities or school projects.
