Controlling Roborover<br />
Roborover has tread-based wheels which let him move easily in any direction, turn,<br />
and even spin on the spot. Roborover also detects signals from the remote controller<br />
regardless of the direction he is facing.<br />
Location<br />
You can operate Roborover indoors but not outdoors. He is capable of driving over<br />
small obstacles, but be sure not to damage Roborover in trying to do so.<br />
Driving control<br />
As he drives around, Roborover can detect and avoid obstacles in his range. This is<br />
approximately 8-12” (20-30cm). He can only see obstacles that are directly in front of<br />
him, or behind him. He talks and makes comments as he goes!<br />
To control his movements, you can use the direction pad on the remote<br />
controller. For example, press the left direction button, to move Roborover<br />
to his left.<br />
To make him turn on the spot, use either the left or right direction buttons for either<br />
clockwise, or counter-clockwise turns.<br />
He can also drive over small obstacles no higher than<br />
a 10-15° gradient, or about 1 inch (2.5cm) high.<br />
Be careful that the obstacles do not unbalance him,<br />
or he might fall to one side.<br />
10-15˚ or no higher than about 1” (2.5cm)<br />
Adjusting the trim<br />
If Roborover does not drive forward straight, you can adjust<br />
the trim up to three stops, using the trim dial on the remote<br />
controller. If he drives to the left, move the dial to the right.<br />
If he drives to the right, move the dial to the left.<br />
