| Beginner bot you can't start 'em too young in the competitive robotics games, we always say. This kit requires no soldering, but the result is a honey of an 8-legged lunar rover, sort of a wireless remote-control arachnid. Includes a pre-wired circuit board for the infrared remote and wirirng harness for the motors and batteries. The case is translucent red and yellow plastic and the whole robotic shebang will measure 6 in. X 6 in. X 5 in. when finished. Has (8) 4-part articulated legs, and (4) switchable channels, so you can operate your bot with (3) others on the same surface. Includes a good 13pp manual, requires minimal tools for assembly and a total of 8 AA batteries, which you supply. The manufacturer doesn't list an appropriate age (other than a warning that 3-year-olds can eat the parts) but we think any crafty 9-to-99-year-old could handle the task. |
