Introduction of Tumbller
Tumbller is a smart self-balancing car designed by ELEGOO for teenagers over 12 years old. It has multiple functions and offers you a great hands-on experience. It's also a DIY kit that helps kids with fostering creativity and inspires imagination. Since it's developed and based on Arduino so you can modify its function via Arduino IDE programming as well.
Tumbller has 6 modes as below:
- IR remote control: To control the car move forward or backward by pressing the arrow key on the remote controller.
- Auto-follow: While the ultrasonic sensor discovering the moving object in front, the car will follow up accordingly
- Obstacle avoidance: It can discover and avoid the obstacle in front and keep going.

- Glowing mode: Tumbller has 6 colorful light modes, you can switch it freely as you like.
- Mobile control: With our newly developed ELEGOO Tool app, it’s very easy and smooth to control Tumbller using your mobile phone.
The tips for using Tumbller:
- The screw on the coupling might get loose after long-time working, so please pay attention to lock it tight.
- When DIY Control on the App, the message to make Tumbller turn right is "i" instead of "r". We wrote "r" in our paper manual.
- When assembling the expansion board, if you find the infrared sensors on the sides are bent, please twist it a bit and make sure it stands up vertically on the board so it can work properly.
- When you pick up the Tumbller vertically, the wheel will still rotate. After tilting the Tumbler ±27º, the rotation will stop.
- Tumbller can’t be used in places where the sunshine or light is too bright if you are using the IR function, because the strong brightness will affect the sensor.
- The LED will flash red when the battery is running out of power.
- The USB interface is only used for burning program. When burning programs, please turn off the battery to prevent interference.
