Introduction
Pitsco Education is pleased to bring you this TETRIX ® MAX R/C Robotics Set Builder’s Guide . This resource
has been created to:
• Help introduce new users to the TETRIX MAX building system.
• Demonstrate how the building system can be used to create original, remote-controlled robot
designs and give inspiration for expanding beyond the provided builds.
• Provide step-by-step instructions that progressively guide users with little or no previous
experience to a comfortable level working within a robust, real-life, scalable building system.
• Build confidence and generate enthusiasm for the fields of engineering and robotics.
The TETRIX MAX Building System:
• Uses elements made from heavy-duty, aircraft-grade aluminum to maximize stability, durability,
and reliability.
• Uses powerful drive motors and accurate servo motors to provide a perfect balance between
power and control.
• Can be used with almost any programmable controller to create versatile, sophisticated robots
able to handle complicated tasks.
• Offers flexibility in build design and can be expanded with additional materials.
• Gives users the opportunity to master the concepts of wiring, motor control, and much more.
• Fosters teamwork, creativity, ingenuity, and persistence among users, groups, and students of all
experience and skill levels.
• Develops real-world engineering and problem-solving skills.
The TETRIX MAX R/C Robotics Set contains all the essential tools and hardware needed to enable users
to build all the robots shown in the builder’s guide one at a time.
Additional parts, tools, and elements can be utilized to create larger or more complex robots. These,
as well as other resources such as videos, technical information, alternative inspirational builds,
subassemblies, and activities, can be found at

Time Expectations:
The models in this guide are meant to progress in complexity in order to foster the growth of technical
building skills for the new or inexperienced user. Please keep that in mind when planning for build
time. Depending on user experience and skill level, each model should be able to be completed in
two 45- to 50-minute class periods. Specific time expectations for each model are given in the model
overview and are unique to that model.
