Aircraft-Grade Robots Your Students Actually Drive

Every team gets a complete R/C Robotics Set plus an Expansion Set—670+ aluminum components, TorqueNADO motors, and wireless gamepad controllers that put students in command of machines they designed and built themselves.

Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Construction

670+ precision-machined channels, plates, brackets, gears, and axles per set give students the same materials used in professional prototyping and industrial robotics

Wireless Gamepad Control

2.4 GHz controllers let each team drive their robot with precision, learning real-time systems operation and spatial reasoning without the complexity of programming

TorqueNADO Motor Power

Two high-torque motors per set deliver the power students need for climbing, pushing, and maneuvering through engineering challenges

Expansion Set Included

Each team gets both a base R/C set and an Expansion Set, doubling their component library for advanced builds and design iterations

What Students Will Do

Students work in teams of four through 35 hours of structured engineering activities that build real-world mechanical design and problem-solving skills.

Design and build fully functioning remote-controlled robots
Master wireless gamepad operation for precision driving
Apply the Engineering Design Loop to iterate on prototypes
Calculate gear ratios, torque, and speed for optimized performance
Navigate obstacle courses and complete timed engineering challenges
Collaborate as a team to solve open-ended design problems

From Box to Bot in Five Steps

Step 1: Unbox and Inventory—Each team receives one TETRIX MAX R/C Robotics Set and one Expansion Set. Students identify and organize 670+ components using the builder's guide parts index.

Step 2: Build Your First Robot—Follow the step-by-step builder's guide to construct a fully functioning R/C robot using aircraft-grade aluminum channels, plates, TorqueNADO motors, and the R/C motor controller.

Step 3: Learn Wireless Control—Pair the 2.4 GHz gamepad controller and master driving fundamentals—forward, reverse, turning, and precision maneuvering.

Step 4: Expand and Iterate—Use Expansion Set components to modify your design. Add mechanisms, change gear ratios, and apply the Engineering Design Loop to improve performance.

Step 5: Take On Challenges—Complete timed obstacle courses, payload tasks, and open-ended engineering problems that put your team's design and driving skills to the test.

Why Teachers Love TETRIX MAX R/C Getting Started Package

Ready Day One

Everything your program needs ships in one package: six complete robot sets, expansion components, curriculum, and teaching tools. No sourcing parts from multiple vendors.

Real Team Collaboration

Structured teams of four give every student a defined role in the build and drive process, building communication and project management skills alongside engineering.

No Programming Barrier

Students focus entirely on mechanical engineering and driving skills, making this the ideal entry point for programs that want hands-on building before adding code.

Professional-Grade Materials

Aircraft-grade aluminum and TorqueNADO motors mean students work with real engineering materials, not plastic toys that break after a semester.

Clear Upgrade Path

When your program is ready for coding, add PRIZM controllers to these same frames. Your investment in R/C sets carries forward into programmable and dual-control configurations.

Full Semester of Curriculum

Thirty-five hours of structured lessons fill a complete grading period, giving you a turnkey robotics program that starts on day one and runs through the final bell.

Flexible Purchasing Options

Frequently Asked Questions

How many students can this package support?

The R/C Getting Started Package includes six complete team sets, each designed for four students. That means up to twenty-four students build and drive simultaneously. If your class is larger, individual R/C Robotics Sets (41990) can be added.

What does the 35-hour curriculum cover?

The TETRIX MAX Engineering Mobile Robotics Curriculum Pack walks students through system overview and safety, frame construction and motor integration, wireless controller operation and precision driving, iterative design challenges using the Engineering Design Loop, and advanced builds with Expansion Set components.

Do students need programming experience?

No. This package focuses entirely on mechanical engineering and wireless control. Students build robots and drive them with gamepad controllers—no coding, no software setup. When your program is ready to add programming, PRIZM controllers can be added to these same robot frames.

How do I upgrade to programmable robots later?

The TETRIX MAX system is modular. Add PRIZM Robotics Controllers to your existing R/C frames to unlock autonomous programming and sensor integration. The Programmable GSP (43417) and Dual-Control GSP (43419) include PRIZM controllers from the start.

What makes TETRIX MAX different from plastic robotics kits?

TETRIX MAX uses aircraft-grade aluminum construction with 670+ precision-machined components per set. The TorqueNADO motors deliver professional-level power, and the metal frames withstand years of classroom use without breaking or wearing out.

What support does Pitsco provide?

Pitsco Education Advisors help with implementation planning, troubleshooting, and curriculum guidance throughout the school year. Online resources include video tutorials, downloadable builder's guides, R/C challenge activities, and quick-start guides for every component.
