FX Navi is Faraday Future's entry-level quadruped: an 8 kg, 12-motor robot built for STEM education, coding practice and early embodied-AI projects at home, in class or in the lab. It is designed to be owned, programmed and customised by learners rather than deployed as a working machine, and it is intended for indoor flat ground.
The most important thing to understand before buying is how it thinks. Navi pairs with an iOS or Android smartphone and uses the phone's camera, microphone, display and processing for vision, voice and AI features, including conversation in 50 languages. The phone is not part of the package, which holds the robot, a remote controller and a charger, so plan for a compatible handset per robot.
Mechanically, twelve joint motors with dynamic gait balance give a top speed of 2 m/s, rotation at up to 360° per second and obstacle clearance up to 34 cm. The built-in lithium battery of about 0.2–0.3 kWh runs for roughly two hours and charges directly from a US-spec plug; an automatic charging dock is an optional extra.
For teaching, Navi runs a learning path from visual block programming to a Python SDK with open low-level interfaces for motion control, perception and hardware expansion, and it receives updates over the air. Four back mounting bolts, 5 V and 12 V power outputs and a USB port take add-on sensors, while the neutral chassis and soft body wrap accept custom skins and 3D-printed head modules. Faraday Future designs it for users aged 14 and over, and younger children should use it with an adult.
