Striker is a compact, manually controlled soccer robot built for fast-paced robotics competitions and experimentation with mechanical design and remote control systems.

It features a sturdy frame with a fixed metal sheet clamp at the front for ball trapping and pushing, and is driven by dual brushed DC motors controlled via a Cytron motor driver.

Control is handled using a FlySky FS-i6 radio transmitter and receiver, providing low-latency directional inputs and precise control during gameplay.

Features

• Dual DC motor drivetrain with Cytron motor driver
• FlySky receiver for wireless manual control
• Fixed front clamp for ball control and maneuvering
• Lightweight metal chassis for speed and agility
• Wide wheelbase for stability during turns
• Powered by a 2S or 3S LiPo battery pack
• Easy-to-modify design for future upgrades

Components

• Motors: Brushed DC motors
• Motor Driver: Cytron MD10C R3
• Controller: FlySky FS-i6 (6-channel)
• Chassis: Custom metal frame with clamp
• Power: 7.4V / 11.1V LiPo battery
• Wheels: 65mm rubber grippers

Use Cases

Striker is ideal for participating in manual-teleop soccer events, testing mechanical designs for ball interaction, or serving as a base for future autonomous upgrades with sensors and vision.
