Brilliant set at a great price

Brilliant set at a great price. The build is useful and the default code base is reasonable. My only concern is that I wish it was rpi based and not arduino based.

Pros
  • Looking forward to
Cons
  • Only available in white

The best so far. in single board computers

I have bought many home made projects that have servo motors and this one has been explained the most. With servos you need to center them and this kit will show you how. The packaging was good too. Opening the box makes you feel like a kid in a candy store.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Big and bulky

So so. Difficult to assemble

If you are an adult the screws are too small to even hold, I wrapped my fingers in tape for grip. A servo will not work at all, I think there is no way to adjust it. I'm making a number of meetings unnecessarily difficult. Update bluetooth module died 1st hour, replaced dead again. The remote never worked properly.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Lots of things

I love this computer parts robot

Received the robot from China two weeks earlier than planned. Instructions and code are on the file share. The instructions are easy to follow. The only problem was that the servo washers didn't fit exactly. But a small round file quickly solved the problem. The robot works continuously on batteries for about an hour. This is a great project if your kids are interested in robotics.

Pros
  • Trial year for one year
Cons
  • Some little things

Great robot and programming challenge

This robot is well designed and documented. The only difficulty I had with the installation was the small size of the screws, so I used a magnetic screwdriver instead of the one that came with it. The kit includes an Arduino-based remote control and two software remote controls: an Android app and a PC/Mac/Linux version written in the Processing language (Processing is a Java wrapper). As a software developer, I took it on as a challenge to create my own iOS remote control app. My goal was to…

Pros
  • Great prize
Cons
  • Negative impression

Great kit - computers and accessories

Of all the robot kits I've bought from Revain, the Freenove quad robot kit is without a doubt the best. It was well packaged in a small box with all items clearly labeled. All the nuts and bolts were in individual bags with size labels, and each bag had a few extras. The quality of all parts, including the electronics, was excellent. Instructions and software are available from the links on the Revain page or on the Freenove page. You can download them before purchasing to know the complexity…

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • This is driving me insane
