Tamiya 70195 Wall Hugging Ladybug

Zig Zag Lady
This simple motorized kit recreates a ladybug as it crawls along a wall. The body is made from clear red ABS material to enable viewing of the internal mechanisms and may also be painted as you like. Stickers are included to depict the eyes and black dots on back of the body. This kit may be easily assembled without the need for any cement and the various motors and switches also come pre-wired. For smooth movement, the robot is equipped with a worm gearbox, rubber tires, and a ball caster.Movement Mechanism
1) When the sensor rod loses contact with the wall, the right motor operates to cause the robot to turn left, back towards the wall. 2) When the sensor rod touches the wall, the right motor is stopped while the left motor operates to cause the robot to turn right, away from the wall. This repeated pattern results in a zig zag forward movement and you can also use other obstacles instead of a wall.Specifications
