After assembling I installed the Windows app on my computer in order to program. The help section of that app linked to all the documentation and beginning tutorial (why is this not in the main interface?). What made me giddy was that you can program using simple drag and drop functions and then click an icon to display the code in Python. Freakin Python!!! This then becomes a drag and drop Python tutorial. How cool is that.
So overall well worth the money for the easiest way to learn robotics and Python with the only draw back being that finding the instructions is non-intuitive. The instructions have all been created and are easy to follow, they just don't hand them to you, you have to find them yourself.
Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2019
Easy bluetooth connection to iPad, everything seems to work great out of the box.
Easy mode scratch programming seems to be easy, my 5 year old has already programmed light patterns and "dance moves" in the programming section.
Negatives:
Instructions are not clear - missing words and some descriptions.
The left and right drive motors are very slightly different speeds, so the robot pulls to the left when supposed to be going straight. I'm sure this can be adjusted, but there is essentially no documentation.
Same for the ultrasonic sensor - it works in obstacle avoidance mode, but trying to get it to work in the scratch programming mode is not happening. As part of the testing, when I put it in obstacle avoidance mode, the ultrasonic sensor needs to be plugged into input 3, but the default for the scratch programming mode is port 2, which seems odd. I didn't see in the documentation did it say what the "2" in the light controller programming block meant, so it took a bit of frustration to figure it out.
However, I do need to do a firmware update, so hopefully that will help out. UPDATE: firmware update bricked the control part (Arduino based?), a replacement is on the way.
Responsiveness in "live" bluetooth control from the iPad is pretty laggy, and is somewhat frustrating to the 5 year old.
Despite these minor issues, the boy is still running around playing with it all day, so that's a net positive.
The FAQ in the user manual was mostly about problems establishing bluetooth connections but none of the suggestions solved the problem. I will be returning this and searching for another programmable or remote controllable robot.
Maybe by combining the other sets and getting some for of gear reduction going on the drive wheels will provide some usability. Otherwise it'll continue to sit on the shelf looking cool...
