Building a BugBot¶
There are two ways to get a BugBot:
-
Full Kit
Everything included — boards, motors, chassis, wheels, battery, and hardware. Skip straight to assembly.
-
Board Only
You have a Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32-S3 Sense and need to source the rest. Start with the parts list, then 3D print the chassis parts, then assemble.
