Extend Your Centipede Robot with Tamiya 70231 Body Sections

The Tamiya 70231 Centipede Robot body sections kit provides a simple way to lengthen an existing Centipede Robot (Item 70230) by adding extra segments. It is aimed at hobbyists and STEM learners who want practical experience with mechanical joints and modular design.

Fitment and Compatibility Details

This pack contains four extra body sections engineered to mate with the original Centipede Robot. Sections attach via universal joints so the assembled unit keeps its articulation and can handle a range of surfaces. Compatibility with Item 70230 keeps the build process clear and approachable for model builders at various skill levels.

Practical Learning and Tuning

Adding sections lets you experiment with different lengths and watch how changes affect gait and balance. This hands-on expansion supports lessons in mechanical linkage, centre of mass, and basic robotics principles, making it a useful classroom or workshop resource.

You can add multiple sections, but stability depends on terrain and how you support the chassis; test incrementally to find a reliable length for your setup.
Basic hobby tools like small screwdrivers and pliers are usually sufficient since the sections use standard joints and fasteners compatible with the original build.
Longer configurations may flex more over uneven surfaces; try different section counts and joint tightness to balance flexibility with traction.
