Review: High quality kit! Fun to build! Don't be swayed ... get it, commit to it, and you'll have a blast! - Just for some perspective, as a child I built radio control cars and I currently do a little programming at my place of employment so this was something I believed that I would enjoy ... and boy I was right. Over the holiday break, I cleared off our kitchen table and went to work. My first impression was that this kit was packaged well and the pieces seemed to be of a quality higher than I expected since it's price was reasonable. I downloaded the instructions and programming. After review, I also ordered a raspberrry pi 4, memory card, hdmi cable adapter for the pi, and made sure to purchase the recommended special batteries that are mentioned in the instructions. I didn't want to mess around as others who complained about charging or other power issues because they wanted to use batteries that came in their $10 fleabay flashlight. The instructions are great. I learned about installing the operating system on the pi which was cool and will come in handy for future projects. I needed a usb mouse, keyboard, and hdmi computer monitor to get the pi setup. I just used my iphone charger to power the pi. As far as building the dog itself, please note that some of the pieces are very small but just take your time and you'll be fine. The kit included a few extra pieces with I appreciated. I felt a great amount of satisfaction once I actually powered it up for the first time. The software did crash once but a quick reboot fixed that. It doesn't go on carpet. I cannot recommend this kit enough and I hope I can find others who have this so we can share ideas! Five Stars!
Review: Fun and Challenging - This was a gift and it was I while before I collected all of the required additional components--FAR more than the bare Raspberry Pi I received with it. If you haven't used a Raspberry Pi previously you will likely need an appropriate power supply, a micro-SD card and micro HDMI to HDMI cable/adapter. Initial setup of both the Raspberry Pi and its interface with your controlling device(s) is much easier when you connect monitor, keyboard and mouse Raspberry. You will also need lithium ion batteries and charger in a size (18650 with or w/o "button top") that has almost no chance of local availability. The dog is VERY finicky about surface! Pile carpet = impossible. Ceramic tile = fair to poor depending upon the width and depth of the grout lines. Hardwood = fair to good. Laminate = poor to fair. Vinyl/asphalt = good to excellent. Smooth concrete (basement/garage) = excellent. Rough concrete = excellent but certain to damage the little "teeth" in the hard acrylic feet that provide the friction/grip. Smooth, unfinished plywood = perfect. While this kit certainly serves as a fair introduction to robotics and especially robotic control (as in the actual programming of such and not just supplied "tricks" and basic operation) only an extremely precocious youth below their mid teens is likely in my estimation to successfully assemble and operate the kit without considerable assistance. I found the protective adhesive paper on both sides of the acrylic body pieces very difficult to remove--impossible for me start with my fingernails and surprisingly difficult with the common x-acto blade that typically works very well in such applications. The acrylic is obviously laser cut so perhaps such makes the edges particularly difficult to "start." STUDY THE INSTRUCTIONS WELL!!!! There are three separate tasks--hardware preparation, software installation/setup in both the host (controller) and client (robot dog) and assembly of the robot itself. You will work at these three tasks simultaneously at times. Assembly instruction for the physical robot and its hardware are based almost purely on a sequence of illustrations. I've worked with such instructions many times. These are easily in the bottom third of quality. I made a few assembly errors one of which required significant disassembly. The problem as I saw it was not related to the complexity of the construction but the lack of clarity in the illustrations to include the full scope of a single step and proper orientation of some pieces. The three-conductor ribbon cable serving the LED light module on mine had a reversed connector on one end. I noticed the problem during assembly as the wire colors did not match the illustration at one end. I didn't know if it was a problem with the instructions or the cable until testing when the LED module proved dead. I wrote the email address in the instructions to have a reply the next morning. I was given instruction on how to remove the conductors from the connector but unfortunately a solder burr on one of them damaged the connector during disassembly as it was "stuck" compared to the rest. I again wrote to have a reply the next morning that a new cable was being shipped. It came from China as I suspected and took about two weeks. Otherwise the general quality of the materials seems good for something of this nature--a slightly glorified toy. The surprisingly short safe running time of three minutes doesn't say much for the durability of the servos but the "next step" in still "toy" robot quality involves a pretty much exponential increase of price. Nearly everything assembles with tiny bolts and nuts provided in somewhat excess quantity. While highly dexterous my fingers are very large yet I had no undue problem with the tiny hardware. The seemingly far too long bolts used in some places are so long to make them reasonably easy to access. Many of the pieces have tiny ridges to aid in positioning nuts making it reasonably easy to install particularly difficult connection with the bolt beneath. Even with nothing to hold down the tiny nut but gravity and not perfectly upside-down you can thread the bolt through it with far less frustration than you may imagine. This construction means that you can easily and repeatedly assemble and disassemble the robot without damage. An important exception to this construction are gears that attach to the servo pinions. Made of white nylon like the pinions and all the rest of the gears, they attach with sheet metal type screws. These gears take a LOT of pressure to push onto the pinions yet the servos feel rather flimsy and not able to take the pressure. The gear is often installed after the servo with things so positioned to make it even more difficult to press the gear onto the pinion without forcing and almost certainly damaging something. The mounting screw will fully seat the gear--the first time you assemble. Do not expect the same degree of such "pull down power" should you need to reassemble! One of mine is perilously close to becoming a full-blown "spinner" with little or no holding power.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An outstanding robot kit
*by R***I on November 2, 2020*

I am a seasoned roboticist with extended experience in building robots from commercial kits as well as my creations. Searching for an inexpensive micro controller for my students, I stumbled on a cute and inexpensive robot called Micro Rover by Freenove, based on the ubiquitous BBC MicroBit card. I then realized that this company offered other, more sophisticated robots based on Arduino and Raspberry Pi at a very competitive price. I tried a few and the last I built is the Robot Dog for which I’m writing this review. This Kit is one of the best I have ever built. It consist of no less than thirteen servos, a Pi Camera, an ultrasonic sensor, some RGB LEDs, sturdy laser cut body parts, all the necessary cables, connectors and accessories plus a well-designed PCB that connects everything together. As a bonus, Freenove provides an outstanding instruction booklet in PDF format (122 page with clear pictures, codes and data tables). This kit may be a little daunting for rank beginners, but it is so well designed, built and documented that I would unconditionally recommend it for anybody interested in learning how modern autonomous robots are built, programmed and controlled. It runs on two easy to find 18650 3.7V batteries and it needs a Raspberry Pi as a controlling SBC (Single Board Computer). This is not a frustrating kit with missing parts, incomprehensible instructions and inexistent customer support. Even in the remote case of you getting stuck, Freenove offers excellent personalized online help. Roberto Pensotti
