“This is my second review on this kit [see earlier review titled "Your first Robot simplified..." or visit http://tinyurl.com/hvmhqbn]...
This kit remains a worthy investment but as with anything, continued use highlights where improvement could be made and I currently have two of them:
The Wheels: the right size with a flange on the axle but the WRONG material - the wheels are plastic and they slip on everything - wooden floors, tiles, vinyl, smooth cement etc. They also won't run on carpet...
The Castor: a good idea but does not spin freely and after 3 months, mine is already rusting...
However, this kit is still an excellent way to get into exploring robotics, especially as it eliminates the hassle of trying to match components...”
“Bought this to teach my son about robotics and programming. The kit was fine, a basic robot (no chasis) 2 sensors (line follow and collision avoidance) and everything else you needed.
It works on my Raspberry Pi A and B+ - so it should work on most versions.
It's just a shame CamJam don't do any other more advanced kits. I'd be getting those also.
Well worth the money, to get into robotics - and once you have this as a starter kit you can always expand it.”
“The edukit is awesome if your just starting out with your raspberry pi and really want to shift to the next gear in physical computing. Right now I. Trying to get control of my robot with a Wiimote”
“I received the EduKit 3 well packed and complete with all the necessary components and parts to get started immediately. The online tutorials cover assembly and finally actually making the robot move, detect obstacles and follow tracks. It is a must have for anyone even those without electronics background such as myself. Definitely extending this into a camera-based navigation robot with my action camera”
