Tamiya 70195 Wall Hugging Ladybug STEM Build  [70195]

Overview of the Tamiya Wall-Hugging Ladybug

This compact Tamiya model gives a clear, hands-on demonstration of basic robotics and mechanical motion in a fun format. As a STEM Series kit, it helps newcomers understand movement, collision response, and simple gear systems.

Construction and Styling

The kit pairs a clear red shell with a white chassis for a striking finish that also exposes internal parts for learning. Parts snap together without screws, so assembly stays focused on how the mechanism fits and moves. A sheet of stickers is supplied so builders can add their own touch.

Movement and Battery

After assembly the ladybug runs from a single R6/AA/UM3 battery (not supplied) and changes direction when it comes into contact with a wall, allowing it to track surfaces. Typical run time is roughly six hours, depending on battery condition.
