“I am retired and have too much time on my hands. When I saw
the advertisement for the EduKit #3 - Robotics, I felt this was just the thing to occupy some of my time and it looked like fun. After receiving and going over the parts, which are of a very good quality, not surprising though, I assembled the robot and set off entering the code to make it operate. If somewhat time consuming, which I was looking for, the coding was straight forward as explained in the work sheets and everything operated as expected. I am pleased with the purchase and am enjoying commanding it about.
Respectfully, R. Ackerfield”
“At this price the hardware bundle is great, but the real value in the this kit comes from the worksheets which gently guide you through building and coding your robot.”
“I was disappointed with the terminal blocks on the MCB. I am going to change the blocks as they are poor quality. Otherwise, the kit works well and I used it on a different chassis. Well done! another affordable kit.”
“Couldn't reply to my previous comment so had to make a new comment. Could you show us a video example of this robot being used without a dongle and portable power supply please?”
“I think this is a really great idea, but to say that all you need to do is add 4 AA batteries is just wrong. Apart from the batteries to power the motors, you also need a portable power supply for the Raspberry Pi and either a wifi or bluetooth dongle to control the robot wirelessly. Why couldn't these have been included in the pack and why hasn't this been made clearer in all the advertising blurb here and in other places?”
