ELECFREAKS micro:bit XGO Rider Kit

The ELECFREAKS micro:bit XGO Rider Kit is an advanced, compact robot kit designed to explore robotics, balance control, and AI programming. The robot features two powerful FOC brushless wheel motors and two full-metal servos with 360° magnetic encoders for precise movement. Its built-in IMU sensor allows the XGO Rider to maintain balance independently, even while moving.

Controlled by a micro:bit (not included), the kit is fully programmable through MakeCode or Python. With Bluetooth support and an intuitive mobile app, the robot can also be operated wirelessly. The XGO Rider is ideal for education, hobby projects, and experiments with self-balancing robotics.
