How it fits the Go2 EDU
The kit mounts on an aluminium back shell bolted to the Go2 EDU accessory rails and is powered from the Go2 EDU expansion power port through a DC-DC converter. The Go2 EDU rated payload is about 8 kg, so the kit leaves roughly 3.5 kg of margin; heavy parts sit low and central for stable walking. All devices connect to one Ethernet switch inside the payload, so the robot computer sees the LiDAR, gimbal and GNSS on one network. See also the Go2 EDU payload page.
Options
- Onboard computer: NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB with ROS 2 pre-installed, +US$2,290
- Lighter build: remove the 5G module, RTK or depth camera to save weight and cost (quoted on request)
- Software: autonomous inspection routes, gauge reading, thermal alarms, mapping and navigation are available as custom development
- Colour and branding: shell colour and logo to your specification

FAQ
How much does an inspection payload for the Unitree Go2 EDU cost?
The YUANZHI Unitree Go2 EDU inspection payload kit starts at US$8,990 for the kit only (LiDAR, dual-spectrum gimbal, depth camera, RTK GNSS, 5G, mount and power). The robot, shipping and import duty are not included; an onboard Jetson Orin NX adds US$2,290.
Is the Unitree Go2 EDU included?
No. The kit is designed for a Unitree Go2 EDU you already own or buy separately. We can advise on where to buy the robot in your country.
How long does delivery take?
Assembly and testing take 4 to 6 weeks after payment, then shipping by air or express, usually 5 to 10 days to Europe or North America.
Does it work with ROS 2?
Yes. All sensors are delivered with ROS 2 drivers configured, and the kit connects to the robot over Ethernet, so it works with your existing onboard computer.
Can the configuration be changed?
Yes. Sensors can be removed or swapped (for example a different LiDAR, a gas detector or a speaker), and we quote the changed kit within one working day.
