- Line Tracking - based on infrared reflection
- C/S Architecture - can be remotely controlled by GUI APP on PC
- WS2812 RGB LEDs - can change a variety of colors
- Real-time Video Transmission
- Equipped with a 4-DOF robotic arm
Note: Powered by 2x18650 batteries (NOT included)
- 14 x 17.5 x 10 cm
The software that operates the tank is not compatible with python 3 which is the current standard. Don't bother buying this product.
The robot is amazing when it comes to assembling it, it requires great care and a step by step that is not always intuitive, you must follow the official PDF guide to assemble it and in my case I had to assemble and disassemble it a few times. I see a small thing to improve for future review the lizards and wheels of the tank the screws tend to come off by themselves in the wheels when the thread rolls it is necessary before each use in progress to check that they are tight because it can happen that they are loose and that will make the tank not move well. In everything else, I highly recommend it for the youngest, mounting it with an adult will certainly be a great feat and an unforgettable moment, in my case I use it as a robot and then you can use it as a PC, it is a fact to take into account if you don't use it as a robot you have it plugged into a monitor and through raspbian you have a whole GNU/Linux desktop. Impressive, it does not disappoint and it is a 5-star product.
Spent most of a night trying to get the software to actually work to no avail. had nothing but running errors that appear to be bad code in the files they have you use. I will most likely figure out a way to use a Arduino and make use out of the other parts. Comment RobotShop: We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your kit. We recommend contacting the manufacturer directly to assist you with this issue: [****]
the kit is easy to assemble thanks to the very well designed assembly tutorial. the robot works fine with a Pi 4B 1GB. just a compatibility problem with the ws281x library for this version of the PI, quickly resolved by the technical support who gave the explanations and the necessary workaround while waiting for the release taking this version of the PI into account. Everything is of excellent quality, I am very happy with this product which deserves its 5 stars.
Fun kit to assemble. Pretty good value with 5 metal gear servos, 2 gear motors, pi camera and motor hat for the pi included. Works with Python 3 on my pi 3b+. Some latency when controlling but serves the purpose. Will use all the parts for other projects afterwards too.
