micro:Maqueen Plus V2 (Ni MH Rechargeable Battery) with Mechanic, micro:bit V2 and Gamepad

The micro:Maqueen Plus V2 is an advanced STEAM educational robotics platform powered by the BBC micro:bit, bundled here with the Maqueen Mechanic kit, wireless gamepad, and micro:bit V2 boards. It offers an all-in-one learning solution suited for primary and secondary students, coding clubs, and robotics competition teams.

Complete mechanical and wireless kit

This bundle includes the Maqueen Plus V2 vehicle, two micro:bit V2 boards, a wireless gamepad, and mechanical parts to assemble four configurations: a loader, forklift, beetle gripper, or pusher. Dual 9g servos and mounting hardware provide hands-on mechanical building alongside coding.

Five-array line tracking and ultrasonic sensing

Five onboard line-tracking sensors with one-key calibration make line-following algorithms straightforward to implement and optimize. Obstacle detection is handled by an easily installed SR04 ultrasonic sensor alongside an integrated infrared receiver.

Rich onboard peripherals and expansion ports

The chassis features dual N20 all-metal gear motors, dual LED headlights, four base RGB ambient lights, and a buzzer. Extensive expansion options include multiple 3.3V and 5V IO ports and I2C interfaces, ensuring full compatibility with add-ons like the HuskyLens AI camera.

Durable base and practical storage

A frosted acrylic protective base plate shields the bottom electronics during classroom use. The kit runs on four 1.5V AA alkaline or 1.2V AA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries and ships in a deep plastic storage box designed to fit the fully assembled vehicle.

Accessible graphical and text programming

The platform supports both Microsoft MakeCode and Mind+ environments, allowing learners to start with simple drag-and-drop blocks before transitioning to complex autonomous routines.
