Customer Reviews
Initially the robot works as intended and is a nice high-quality robot. I am looking through the literature and while I can find how to manipulate the various functions/tasks that are preprogramed, I am having trouble finding how to run multiple tasks/functions at the same time. Ideally, I would like to line/path follow grab a block at a time and put into a sorting bin. Is there literature or videos that show how to do this. Is the robot capable of this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The robot is good in term it does what it says. However, it may need some additional adjustments and calibration to work as expected. Also the bundling and tieing of the cables can be improved. What I like the most are the detail and easy to follow documentation and the tech support.
Recommend buying one of this.
Thank you dear Bayron! And let me feedback to our team regarding the cables. Thank you for your suggestion!
Many Thanks,
Hiwonder

Hi! 500g normally
This hobby bot was exactly what I was looking for. Able to access the onboard raspberry pi and start programming. Company’s tutorials are good for a starting point, although some of the code comments etc are in Chinese. Tech support was responsive when I reached out to them with a question. Of course I’ve hit some snags along the way since I’m just a beginner programmer. But I’m very impressed with the quality of the chassis, all metal parts, etc. I will definitely purchase from this company again
