FREENOVE Micro:Rover Kit for BBC Micro:bit (V2 Included), Obstacle Avoidance, Light-tracing, Line-Tracking, Remote Control, Playing Melody, Colorful Lights, Example Projects, Blocks and Python Code

My boyfriend needed a hobby over the holidays. I got him this and he was excited. This does not come with the battery, so make sure to get that too or else you can't really start without it. This kept him busy for a few hours but he's very happy with it.

Very fast delivery, excellent packaging easy to assemble and to program. My 11 year's daughter love it very much. I highly recommended for stu

Kit is great and comes with all the parts needed except for batteries. This is a great teaching tool for my students. Minus one star because once assembled, the case doesn’t close.

Gift for ggrandson....he loved it!

seems ok, except for the fact I'm not able to use it yet because it requires some rare big battery I have to special order! If you make a product that needs anything besides a standard battery, you need to include it!

Works great perfect match with microbit and Python!

Excelent.

Love this but the on board charger broke the first time I plugged in in is there any way to reattach it ?

This kit is designed very well, but is also not child-proof! My daughter is very careful so we haven't had any issues. There are many ways of communication with the car and also several available codes for kids who don't like to program it themselves. The documentation can be improved and updated.

Great robot !!!

I've been using the BBC micro:bit for a few years now and have found this to be the most capable robot featuring the micro:bit so far. You'll need to buy yourself an 18650 rechargeable battery but they're cheap and easy to get hold of. The micro:rover takes care of charging and has a battery level indicator as well as a whole host of sensors, a buzzer and 12 LEDs. I was also surprised to find how much help was available from Freenove online with PDFs manuals available for Microsoft MakeCode and Python coding. You can also download videos showing each of the sketches in the manual running on the micro:rover. The micro:rover is great value for money since the BBC micro:rover is included in the price too.

ほぼ完成品です。 micro:bit基板、超音波センサー基板、バッテリーを差し込むだけでハードウェアは完成です。 その後、Freenoveが提供するプログラム（HEXコード）をmicro:bitに転送するだけです。 転送するのにアプリは必要としません。 Windowsの場合、micro:bit基板とパソコンとをUSB接続すると、MICROBIT(G:)のようにドライブとして認されるので、ファイルをコピーするだけです。 スマホには、Freenoveが提供するアプリをインストールします。 ローバー（＝ロボット）との接続はBluetoothです。 開封から動作確認まで30分もかかりませんでした。 ライントレーサーとして使った時、 同梱のLite-Tracking Mapでは、線が細すぎて、途中でローバーが止まってしまいました。 左・中・右 の３つのセンサーのうち最低1つのセンサーが反応（＝床が黒色である）しないと両方のモーターが停止します。 左右のセンサーの位置は調整できないので、線を太くするしかないようです 。 他の、「光に追従する」「障害物回避」は うまく動作しました。 左右のモーターには、モジュールの小さい（＝サーボモーターに使用されている位の）、精度が良さそうな、歯車が使用されています。 組み立てる楽しみはありませんが、ソフトウェア重視の勉強にはなると思います。 良い製品だと思います。 また、丁寧なチュートリアルと迅速なサポートはFreenoveの売りだと思います。

Genial!!!!
