Review: Great fun for the kittens - This was an amazingly fun project to build. It's not simple and definitely not a toy for younger kids to try to build on their own unless they are exceptionally gifted makers. Middle teens and up with a serious interest in robotics will immensely enjoy it. There were some rocky moments during assembly. I think some of the steps could have been layed out smoother. Overall it was a challenging build that kept me engaged for hours. The final result worked exactly as expected. The software is advanced but can be understood with some effort. After that, it's great to add some features or see if you can optimize its capabilities. My kittens gave it mixed reviews initially. Now they play with it and I'm adding functions so it can play back autonomously. I'm wirelessly linked it to my own larger AI server system so it can "learn" from observing and "playing" with the kittens. It's done some unexpected things. For example, it learned how to chase a ball right along with the kittens. The kittens are far quicker and more agile but the hexapod tries. Overall 5 out of 5 stars
Review: Incredibly fun and educational - This is one of the best things I’ve ever bought on desertcart. The parts are all quality. The tutorial is fairly easy to follow for an adult. Kids will struggle a lot but maybe an older teen that’s into robotics can handle it. All the source code is written in python which means you can completely reprogram everything yourself with a little experience. I added a speaker and mic to mine and well…you should check out the video to see it in action. I struggled with servo battery life at first until I programmed a relax after idle for a few minutes. I’m able to get about 45-180 minutes now based on how much crawling around he’s doing. If you want something fast then go for a wheeled robot. If you want something more complex and interested in inverse kinematics or potentially reinforcement learning then go with this hexapod. Note: The video I included is all custom programming and is not something you can do out of the box. That being said I’m releasing my source code on GitHub soon.

## Features

- Multiple Functions: Each of the six legs has three motors, the rotatable head has a camera and an ultrasonic distance sensor (Assembly required) (Raspberry Pi and Battery NOT included)
- Detailed Tutorial: Provides step-by-step assembly guide and complete Python code (The download link can be found on the product box) (No paper tutorial)
- Compatible Models: Raspberry Pi 5 / 4B / 3B+ / 3B / 3A+ (2B / 1B+ / 1A+ / Zero 2 W / Zero W / Zero 1.3 is also compatible but needs extra parts) (NOT included in this kit)
- Control Methods: Controlled wirelessly by your Android phone or tablet, iPhone (with Freenove App) and computer (run Windows, macOS or Raspberry Pi OS)
- Battery NOT Included: Please refer to the downloaded tutorial to buy

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Any thought to changing the batteries to 2s lipo packs(used for rc) with deans or xt30 connectors?  those batteries are easier and cheaper to get.**
A: 2S Lipo wouldn't work. Maybe 3S but need to regulate the voltage down to 7.4v

**Q: A photos indicates that additional parts are needed.  it is unclear if the spider shield, survos, camera, ultrasonic are included? i get needs pi+bat**
A: Dear customer,
You need to prepare your Raspberry Pi and memory card, and four 3.7v 18650 batteries
Other component kits include

**Q: What's the best raspberry pi board to use here given the goals of budget friendly but capable, and are the higher end boards "overkill"?**
A: I am using the Pi 4, with 4GB of RAM. Could use 2GB probably. A Pi 3 would work too.

**Q: Can a latte panda be used in place of raspberry pi?**
A: I don't believe so as the pi out for the motor control board that comes with the kit is specifically designed to fit with the pi

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Robot Well Worth Every Penny
*by J***T on February 7, 2021*

The Big Hexapod Robot Kit by Freenove is a fantastic robot to have. The tutorial takes you through every aspect from setting up a Raspberry Pi to assembly and operating the hexapod robot. This thing is bigger than I imagined and is a bargain for the price. I would suggest just getting a Raspberry Pi 3B, which has WiFi built in. I installed a Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB version on it, but had an issue with it not connecting to the mobile app when it is turned on. I replaced it with a 3B version. Maybe a 4B with less memory might work but the 3B with a 16GB sd card is all you really need. Tech support is fast and friendly. Shaynee and Denzel are very committed to getting your issues resolved. I had to email them many times trying to get the 4B 8GB Pi to work, and they were always glad to help in any way they could.
