マニュアル(PDF)や組み立て動画があるので、初心者でも簡単に作れると思います。組み立てた後、動作せず、私の手順が違うのかとサポートの方とメールでやり取りしました。まず驚いたのが、1日以内で返信をくれるという返信の速さ。メールの内容も丁寧で分かりやすかったです。何度かやり取りした結果、新しい基盤を送ってくださり、無事に動くようになりました。トラブルが起きたとしてもメーカーのサポートが充実しているので、安心して購入できる品だと思います!

Liked the kit, but the instructions has some holes and the mobile apps required to control the model leavs a bit to wish for.But over all it has potential and I will most definitely have fun with this one.All the parts are there, well packed and easy to follow instructions, but a bit un clear at some parts.Will get more kits.And I'm planning to upgrade this one.

Ich habe das Produkt aufgebaut und getestet. Alles funktionierte einwandfrei bis auf die Servos (für die "Kopf-"Bewegung). Diese machten teilweise komische Geräusche bzw. liefen heiß.Vielleicht habe ich etwas falsches gemacht (ich bin nicht sicher, ob ich den Strom, wie in der Anleitung beschrieben, während dem Aufbau anließ oder nicht).Ich habe also den Support von Freenove per E-Mail kontaktiert. Nach wenigen Stunden erhielte ich eine Antwort.Trotz Anleitung funktionierten die Servos nicht richtig.Ich habe dann den Support erneut kontaktiert und erhielte dieses Mal eine Antwort nach wenigen Minuten. Freenove fragte mich nach meiner Adresse um mir Ersatzservos zu senden!Ich bin sehr positiv überrascht über so einen schnellen, personalisierten und zuvorkommender Support!Ich warte jetzt auf die neuen Servos.Obwohl ich das Problem mit den Servos hatte, bewerte ich das Produkt mit 5 Sterne: alles funktioniert ansonsten Einwandfrei, der Support ist hervorragend, die Anleitung sehr gut und es gibt auch eine YouTube Video-Anleitung. Die Verarbeitung ist gut, es ist alles sehr gut verpackt und allein der Aufbau hat mir und meinem Sohn viel Spaß bereitet. Das Problem mit den Servos habe ich vielleicht selbst verursacht und sehe deswegen kein Grund für einen Punktabzug.Das Produkt würde ich weiterempfehlen.

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_V5obGb6X7CV0QHere 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. Impressive3. 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.

It says so in the description, but do note, you need a Raspberry Pi (I used a Pi 3) and two 18650 batteries, which are not included.I was very keen to build this and try it out, so I downloaded the code and set up my Raspberry Pi, shortly after placing my order. Fortunately, I already had a couple of 18650 batteries. So, when the kit arrived the next day, I was good to go. Assembly took about 2 hours.First point to note is that I have big fingers and some of the screws are really tiny – I needed fine tweezers for these.Second point, when assembling the pan and tilt ‘head’, the instructions tell you to plug in the servos and run servo.py to put them in the correct position before assembly. I would recommend carrying out steps 1 to 9 of the 11 illustrated steps (page 51 at time of writing) before connecting the servos.I would also suggest connecting the cables to the camera and ultrasonic units before connecting the ‘face’ to the ‘neck’ as they are lot more accessible at this point.Excepting a couple of fiddly bits, the kit was straight forward to assemble, I ran all the test modules and everything worked first time, except it went backwards instead of forwards – but the instructions covered correcting this. It does everything shown in the Freenove video and can also be controlled directly by a phone app (android in my case). I was impressed by the quality of the build and also that all the code is open source.At the price, having a kit you can control from your phone, pretty much out of the box, is already good value, but the potential for writing your own code is even more appealing and I would imagine would be a great incentive for novice coders. I hope a community will develop where people can share their code and ideas. I also think the kit is ideal for further development – a robot arm would be a cool addition, perhaps Freenove may develop expansion kits in the future.In summary, a great kit, a great learning tool and best of all – open source!
