Robo India DVR-1 Multipurpose Da Vinci Robot Including Arduino Motor Shield and Ir Sensors

I bought this kit to bring out the engineer in my nephew who is 8 years old. First thing to note: .You MUST also buy the Arduino Board as well in addition to this product to see it in action. This is not very obvious in the Product description. So make sure you get that as well. I wonder why Robo India does not include it as part of this kit. Also do not forget to get new batteries. You need 6 AA's.The instructions booklet are average and if the user is a young one like in my case they will need some adult help to help them get through the instructions. Robo India has a website with many guides so look them up online. The skills required for an adult to build this is Low to Medium. For a child maybe more towards the High Medium to Complex especially if they are beginners. This is good because its NOT a LEGO substitute and a little more challenging because you must know / learn how to put this thing together. Another lesson you will learn is how fragile the boards can be. Too much pressure or heat from the solder gun and you can kiss the board Good bye :) .Overall its an excellent way for beginners to raise their robotic skills. It took my nephew 3 days to figure out the the chassis and figure out how the circuit works ( with a little bit of my help of course). At the end of it we realized we need the Arduino Board to upload the program to and once we had it , compiling and pushing the code to the board and running it was less challenging. The joy of seeing your creation go is priceless.Please vote if you find this review useful . Thanks !

Amazing Product! But I think price is high...

This product doesn't have proper instruction manual. With the help of web site and YouTube some how I have assemble it, after assembling it is not working. Further research on website I found that it need further programming to run this products. It need some extra hardware to run it. This product is for some mature person who having knowledge of programming.

Successfully I have received my package before 2 days of the expected time. Package was good,box size is appropriate, good parts,everything fine. Hats off to the product. 5 stars to it

Sir !! This is amazing experience with your set ,,,,,really loved it ,,,easy set up easy connection ,,for any robotic based project ,,more info ,,contect 9462349140

The kit is good. But i feel that the tyres provided in the kit are of poor quality.

it was not working

Has anyone completed the line circuit. Need inputs in completing the circuit. The tutorial on line diagram appears to be incomplete.
