FTC Starter Kit

Now, for the first time, a starter kit is available to teams that will support a competition-worthy robot and not just deliver a sampling of parts.

Unique to the AndyMark Starter Kit is the opportunity for customization by teams. Depending on your available budget and existing inventory of parts we have three levels of S3 bundles and 5 different FTC Chassis to allow you to customize the kit to meet your needs.

The S3 bundle portion of this kit matches the contents of the stand-alone S3 bundles (Expansion, Basic, and Mega) but now at a higher discount!. The S3 system has been optimized for building all sorts of structures on top of the TileRunner foundation. This Simple Super Structure (S3) system is ideally suited for FTC sized robots with its compact size and high strength nature. The 16 mm profile and hole spacing mean the S3 system can interface with many other products in the grander FTC ecosystem from manufacturers like Tetrix and REV Robotics to expand the functionality of your existing parts.

Providing the foundation of the Starter Kit is one of 5 of our FTC Chassis options. The TileRunner is the premier drive base for FTC robots and provides a strong, robust, and reliable way to get around the field. The TileRunner comes with 3 different gear ratio options to allow teams to build, play, experiment, and learn about how these choices affect the driving performance of the robot. With a vast number of mounting holes all over the sheet metal, the TileRunner is ideal for mounting any sort of Super Structure optimized for any year's game. Again all of the holes on TileRunner are 16 mm apart so that they can be used with the S3 System along with other parts from additional manufacturers.

In addition to the selected S3 Bundle and FTC Chassis the Starter Kit also includes the following parts to fully outfit the rest of the robot. All of these parts have been carefully selected by our team of robot experts to easily interface with one another and provide an expansive portfolio of parts for further expansion.
