  • Great project, NOT for beginners - customers support is great!
Color: Ordinary Wheels
Quality: - The quality of the product is good. - Pieces go together well. - All parts are in-place. - All electronic pieces are working well. Shipping: - Shipping was quick and packaging was good. Handling: This is NOT a project for beginner or a child. This car is not to be played in the manner kids expect to play with remote control cars. This is NOT remote control car. Don't get me wrong, this car is controlled, by you from your Android app or computer because it is a full blown computer on wheels so it is connected to your WiFi. Kids should not drag this car around by hands or bump it in any way - car is bare naked computer with unprocessed fancy sensors attached to it. So should be handled with care. Skills: You should very comfortable very with computers and computer hardware parts. Troubleshooting experience will come handy and especially with Linux operating system - you must be comfortable with Linux terminal and various commands. Medium level Python programming skills will make this project easier. Sometimes you have to use common sense when connecting wires (for example camera wire) as photo on instructions are not precise sometime. However the manual is well made and covers A LOT OF STUFF, so if you are patient - you will get there and will still have some remaining hear you haven't manage to pull yet. Issues: The only issue I discovered is that wheels spin in reverse direction so when you press forward they go backwards and left and right are also reversed. This makes many things unusable. I wrote email to their tech support and got response in about two day - which I find very reasonable. First one to swap cables on the motor (which would require soldering iron) and another one is to make changes to the Python code in Motor.py and "-" in from of four "(dutyX)" lines. Despite the fact that updating was was way easier, I chose to swap wires for fun - haven't soldered anything in years. Other than that everything worked perfectly. MUST HAVE: Car needs two 18650 batteries. My recommendation is to buy 4-pack and a charger. These batteries power up a computer (RaspberryPi) with additional board, four powerful motors, many sensors, LED light, buzzer and camera. If you use the car actively the batteries will drain in about 2 hours which is not bad - so having a spare back will definitely help. FINAL NOTE: This is a great car and you can do anything with it. Great for learning programming and machine learning (ML). You could learn and apply all modern technologies and build amazing project. I am looking forward to updating the server part and train the car to learn various algorithm such as Reinforcement Learning. This car can to the same thing Amazon DeepRacer does because you can apply all the same technologies but Amazon DeepRacer is about $399 so I could not justify this as I can do the same thing on this car. ENJOY! ... show more

  • After a couple issues. The seller is GREAT!!!
Color: Ordinary Wheels
They still need to fix the tutorial aspect of this kit, but i consider their kit valuable on the parts side, the instructions are horrible for young people. Suck less more...

  • Computer Engineer - Incredible Project
Color: Ordinary Wheels
I'm a professional computer engineer with 30+ yrs experience who designs high end electronics, circuit boards and writes embedded software. I also help as a mentor on my daughters robotics team. It's no secret that I am a huge fan of the Raspberry Pi. For some time I've been looking for a kit that teaches how to integrate the Rpi and robotic hardware. This kit does all that and more. First a heads up - this is an engineering learning kit. It teaches the builder how to assemble a robot from lots of pieces, how to connect wiring between the Rpi and robot, how to write software for the Rpi that explains how to control things like the camera, ultrasonic sensor, drive motors and more. It also explains how to bring up a Rpi and how to log in remotely from a PC. Simply put, this kit is amazing. I also want to put in a plug for one of the most helpful books for learning about the Rpi and Linux - it is 'Exploring Raspberry Pi" by Derek Malloy https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B01H2KNGX8&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_V5obGb6X7CV0Q Here is an overview of what this kit has to offer: 1. You build a fully functioning 4wd car from the pieces supplied in the kit. The instruction manual is well written and explains 90% of what you need to know. If you don't have any experience building things, then I suggest getting help. 2. You learn how to test each function of the robot one at a time - this is really helpful because you learn what each sensor does and the software used on the Rpi to talk to it. This is really great because the python code for each sensor is explained so that you can modify it to learn more about how the software and sensors work. All software is provided and simply works. Impressive 3. You learn about the Rpi and how to log in remotely - this is a key aspect of running this little computer and it helps you understand just how amazing the Rpi really is. 4. The final part of the project is to fire up an app that gives you control over the robot and lets you drive it around, stream video, change the LED's and more. The app is either an iPhone or android app that you can download from the app stores or you can also run a Windows or Mac app. CONCLUSION: Simply put, this is a really great project. It is not a toy, but a intermediate robotics kit designed to introduce you to the world of robotics, computers and the Rpi. As someone who designs electronics for a living, this is one of the best kits I have seen. Highly recommended. ... show more
