The MOTION:BIT Pro is a powerful expansion board for the Micro:bit made for 12V DC motors and servo motors. It transforms the micro:bit into a versatile controller capable of handling heavier robots, providing both 5V and 12V power options.
It is compatible with both Micro:bit V1 and V2, providing versatility and future-proof compatibility. Say goodbye to polarity confusion! Its colour-coded servo ports prevent incorrect connections, providing a hassle-free and foolproof setup.
With features like GPIO status LEDs, motor terminals, servo ports, and an I2C breakout, it offers extensive connectivity and control. You can program it using the Microsoft MakeCode Editor, with support for both graphical and text-based coding, making it perfect for robotics and STEM projects.
If you need a board that does the same thing but has less power and is easier on the wallet, then click here to get the original MOTION:BIT (Psst, you can find a comparison table of the two a bit further down the page)
