Adafruit MBot Robot Kit - 2.4GHz Version

The MakeBlock mBot offers a robust initiation into the realm of robotics. Its sturdy and charismatic body provides an excellent foundation for building a rover. Assembling this entry-level robot is a breeze, requiring no soldering; everything is simply plug-and-play.

The kit consists of 38 parts, along with color-coded RJ25 ports for hassle-free wiring. Included are a repair kit and screwdriver, eliminating the need for additional tools. The mBot's mechanical structure is compatible with the Makeblock platform and most Lego parts, and its electronic components are based on the Arduino open-source ecosystem, offering limitless possibilities for customization.

The package comes equipped with various pre-made projects such as an obstacle-avoidance car, line-following vehicle, and remote control car. Play engaging games like balloon bursting, soccer, or sumo. Expand its capabilities by adding accessories like servo motors, displays, or an LED matrix.

You have two programming options: a graphical drag-and-drop software akin to Scratch 2.0 for a straightforward learning experience, and the more advanced Arduino IDE for intricate controls. Note that this version uses a 2.4GHz radio and is not Bluetooth-compatible, which makes it ideal for use with desktop or laptop computers but not with mobile devices.
