Needless to say, I made many mistakes including breaking some fragile plastic parts. just like building a plastic model kit, the cheaper the kit, more difficult and more skill that is required to build it. I intentionally tried to build it as quickly as I can and use only the tools that was provided in the kit. It took me about 3 hours to build the kit and successfully run the first test code. This may make a good instructor led project where they can get some hands on help as needed (Note: as I have faced, the real learning will happen as the cheap components quickly go bad where you will have to find replacement part to fix or upgrade you robot).

There are many Youtube videos providing instruction on how to build a similar kit, but I still think a beginner will struggle if he or she tries to build it by himself/herself. However, you will still need some skills in building such electronic kits and should already have basic understanding of operating Arduino unit.
#Diy arduino robotic arm kit pdf
Unlike many of the cheap electronic kits you buy on the internet with no instruction, I found the PDF manual very useful in putting together the robot arm.
Many seasoned engineers disregard it as unnecessary, but I alway see beginners struggle trying to manage all the basic wiring especially when they have to trace wires and debug something later.ĬD that was provided included a PDF manual, Bluetooth app for Android based devices, and example codes for the Arduino.
Having a sensor expansion board made it easier to manage wires as you can just plug in the 4 servo cables and a bluetooth module. The sensor expansion board (blue color) mounts on top of the Arduino board (black color). The kit comes with an Arduino Uno clone and a sensor expansion board. Here is the very quick review of the kit and the lessons learned It was one of the best cost/value at the time in Amazon. The main reason for me choosing this kit was because it included the joystick control and the bluetooth support. There are many kits that are very similar, so make sure to check the user rating/feedback before choosing one.
