RoboCore Master Kit for Arduino with Blackboard UNO R3 50+ Projects Inside

I was really impressed with how well the kit is packaged in a nice organizer box. Definitely something you can gift wrap and give as a present. They really took care in the design of the kit. Comes with everything you need to get started minus a computer to program the Arduino. The power supply is a "world wide" universal adapter, and they include the adapter for US plugs. You can also use almost any 5-15 volt DC adapter to power the Arduino. There is a good selection of different sensors and components that would be useful for all sorts of projects. Included in the kit is an access code for RoboCore's online tutorials, offering a deep dive into the how and why of electronics. Projects start off with blinking an LED and work up to full Internet Of Things projects with web control. You would be lucky to cover this munch information in the average college level introduction to electronics class.

I was a bit concerned about some other reviews, but when my kit arrived I loved it!!! What an awesome kit to learn electronics and programming! The quality of the Arduino board manufacture by RoboCore is great. It also it came with a code to unlock an online course with great content, incluiding step by step instructions. My kid was thrilled with the online tutorials! I think they're perfect for those who don't have any prior knowledge, as well as for people who want to improve and develop fantastic projects. My family and I loved this purchase!!!

I am a middle/high school STEM teacher and I recently attended the RoboCore Robotics event in Sao Paulo Brazil where I saw the RobeCore Master-Kit for Arduino in demos. My students and I have built and modified small RC controlled robots in class and I now they are ready to take a more in-depth look into the world of robotics engineering and computer programming. The RoboCore Master-kit for Arduino is a good fit for the next robotics class that I will be teaching. There are two features of this kit that especially appeal to me: the Black Box and the online suite of over 40 well illustrated and explained projects. IMO, these two items separate it from all other kits. The projects are accessible with an access-code supplied in the convenient carry storage case that comes with the kit. Each project is well explained and shows both Scratch Code and C++ Code. The Black Box is a modified Arduino that has additional circuitry designed to prevent inevitable short circuit damage and reverse polarity mistakes (and with Middle and High School students, this will happen). Later in the course, I plan to use this kit to explore C++ or Scratch programming, Black Box-Arduino programming, input source and output programming, sensors, servo motor control, miniature joystick control, and breadboard wiring skills. I have international students in my course, so being able to get online support and instructions in different languages is very helpful as well.

It comes with enough to get started on almost anything you could want to create. I love it. That being said, don't buy this on Amazon.com. find a separate warehouse/shipping service that doesn't treat customers and products like they're worthless. These are delicate computer components that need to be handles in a way that Amazon can't even fathom. Seriously, I don't know how AWS and this site can come from the same piece of 💩. I will consider myself lucky that only a couple of the dividers in the case and one LED diode were damaged. And that is clearly from socking and storage. There was no indication of mistreatment from the delivery. And no signs that the damage could have been from anything other than cramming it into the container predestined by horribly programed stocking algorithms. I know this because I did a stint in RVA. Absolutely get this kit for anyone interested in the subject. Just not from Amazon.com

I have been using this kit with my son as part of his homeschooling robotics kit for 3 months and there are still so many projects to enjoy. This one kit will supply us with a whole school year of robotics and engineering lessons with hands on learning! Definitely worth the money and I love that when I have a question I can reach out to support and get help right away! This has been a game changer for my lesson planning and I’m enjoying it as much as my son!

Very difficult to follow any instructions because not all documentation is available in English.

Learning kit that does not have a even mildly functional tutorial… parts are ok but nothing to help you learn how to use as intended
