The robot platform is designed to operate in temperatures of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius. The external peripherals camera, sonar, servos, and electronic speed controls are water and dust resistant. Users can operate the robot in the rain/snow or wade through water with some limitations.

The robot platform comes standard with a Logitech Gamepad®. The operator supplies a battery charger, a Windows based computer, and a WiFi access point. Optional equipment includes a VGA touch screen for field diagnostics.

Run time is a function of terrain, driving conditions and battery capacity. With the stock battery configuration, user can typically get 2 hours or more of run time.

The robot platform is designed to address three levels of expertise. For non-programming users the graphical user interface and Gamepad provides the users access to video feeds, sonar, GPS, voltage sensor and motion control. Intermediate and advanced users will enjoy a rich network API that provides access to all motion and sensor data.

The robot is controlled via a Gamepad.
