## Description

The Drive Cubelet contains a motor and roller wheels for moving on a horizontal surface and moves in one direction, slowing to a stop with a value of zero and moving faster with higher input values.

 Cubelets are magnetic blocks that can be snapped together to make an endless variety of robots. You can build robots that drive around on a tabletop, respond to light, sound, and temperature, and have surprisingly lifelike behavior. But instead of programming that behavior, you snap the cubelets together and watch the behavior emerge like with a flock of birds or a swarm of bees.

**Note:** Cubelets require a special battery and charger. You will need to purchase the [charger](https://core-electronics.com.au/search/?q=11344) separately.
