It would be great if the product worked

I was very excited to build this with my daughter. However, the guide, if you can call it that, is really badly written. The charts don't help. I had to go through the instructions several times. The woman in the video speaks too fast, skipping words and is unintelligible. I had to slow the video down to 75% (thanks YouTube) and play it 4 times before I fully understood what to do. I understand that the steps may seem overly simple for some, but for a STEAM-branded toy, they should be clearer and easier to understand. Worst of all, the controller doesn't cope well. Each time the foot moves, the Rasberry Pi needs to be restarted. Without the legs attached, the raspberry pi works fine.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Waiting too long
