One set. Two career pathways. Students build with 670+ aircraft-grade aluminum components, then choose how they control what they've built — drive with a wireless gamepad to learn remote operations, or write Arduino C/C++ code on the PRIZM Pro controller for autonomous sensor-guided navigation. The same engineering disciplines behind autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, and manufacturing robotics start right here, with 19–31 hours of structured instruction for 2–4 students.

The Only Set That Does Both
Switch between wireless gamepad driving and PRIZM Pro-based autonomous coding without changing hardware. Grove sensors, TorqueNADO motors, and 670+ aluminum components give your students the complete robotics experience in a single set.
Remote Operation Fundamentals
Students drive their builds with a wireless gamepad, developing intuition for motor control, gear ratios, and mechanical feedback. Immediate response keeps the learning loop tight — build, drive, adjust, repeat.
Autonomous Programming with Arduino
When students are ready, they move to the PRIZM Pro controller and write real C/C++ code in the Arduino IDE. Using the Grove line finder and ultrasonic sensor, they program autonomous behaviors like line following and obstacle avoidance — the same logic behind warehouse robots and self-driving systems.
Three Guided Robot Builds
The builder's guide walks students through the RangerMAX Bot, MiniMAX Bot, and RotoGrip Bot. Each build introduces different mechanical concepts — differential drive, compact chassis design, and articulated gripper systems — with both driving and coding activities.
Virtual Robotics Included
Students practice programming in a simulated environment before touching physical hardware. Debug code, test sensor logic, and iterate designs without risking components — then transfer their programs to the real robot.
What Students Will Do
Teams of two to four get the full spectrum of robotics experience—mechanical design, remote-controlled driving, and autonomous programming—all from a single set.
- Design and assemble robots from aircraft-grade aluminum structural components
- Drive robot builds using a wireless gamepad to test mechanical systems
- Write Arduino C/C++ code for autonomous sensor-guided navigation
- Calibrate line finder and ultrasonic sensors for real-world conditions
- Calculate gear ratios and torque requirements for different drive configurations
- Debug code and iterate designs through the full engineering process

Why Teachers Love TETRIX MAX Dual-Control Robotics Set
Career-Connected Engineering
The dual-control progression maps directly to careers in embedded systems, autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, and manufacturing robotics.
Real Code, Not Drag-and-Drop
Students write actual C/C++ in the Arduino IDE — the same language and environment used by professional engineers and hobbyists worldwide.
Two Entry Points, One Investment
Start with R/C driving for students who need a physical on-ramp to engineering. Advance to autonomous coding when they're ready. Both skill sets, one set.
Professional-Grade Materials
Aircraft-grade aluminum and TorqueNADO motors ensure builds withstand years of classroom use without degrading performance.
Built for Repeated Use
Aircraft-grade aluminum doesn't wear out. The same components serve multiple classes across multiple years.
Dedicated Support
Pitsco Education Advisors provide implementation planning, troubleshooting, and curriculum guidance throughout the school year.
