Freenove Hexapod Robot Kit with Remote Control Overview

Works great with 2s Lipo easy mod
I really liked the clear instructions, but even so I skipped ahead in them and forgot to push the flash up to the controller. I liked also the software loaded on my Linux laptop and also my windows machine with no problems. Overall an easy build and really a well thought out kit that looks nice when put together. I didn't like the stock battery setup and unsoldering the battery connectors and just using a 550Mah 2s Lipo with a XT30 connector works perfectly. I didn't want to worry about getting a new charger and have other things the use standard lipos. I tried the phone app which is my favorite and also the computer control but I believe I fried my NRF24L modules by plugging them into the wrong socket. Therefore I haven't gotten my remote to work yet. So I ordered a couple more modules they are very cheap and I'm waiting on them to come in. I didn't feel right complaining about them, since it was my fault for getting in a hurry and they can only handle a max of 3 volts. The hexapod moves a bit slow but for 9g servos it's about what I expected. Battery life with the 550Mah battery seems to be about 17-20 min. I was using a 1600Mah battery at first because I was waiting on Amazon to deliver the smaller ones and the battery life was crazy long, 35 min or more at least. I look forward to more time playing with the code and adding some leds etc.

The Ultimate Arduino Compatible Robotic Kit .. AT LAST !!

I then looked up on their GitHub Repository (the link is on this page, in the kit’s description) for assembly instruction manuals for all three kits and saw they were all great kits, easy to assemble, calibrate and to program, but since I have to take into consideration I am dealing with all ages students, I did not want to impose multiple expenses upon the group, that could have a disastrous dissuading effet on the younger students, most if not all of them without a steady revenue. So I chose « One Kit to Rule Them All », the Hexapod Robot Kit. After all, if they can master the Hexapod, they will be able to understand all previous kits too, right ? So be it !!
Upon receiving the Hexapod kit, my first impression was I couldn’t have gone wrong. The kit was very well packed (see photos) and I had the impression Freenove put a great effort in shipping this kit the way they did, making sure nothing was damaged from shipping. The calibration sheet was provided, in case the customer didn’t have a printer at hand or taking a chance the pattern was resized automatically by the customer’s printer. This is a great initiative from their part. Also, Acrylic parts were well protected, making sure no scratch was made during transport, due to inherent vibrations. The parts for the included remote control were separate from the parts for the Hexapod, in separate boxes. This assures no parts gets misplaced. Again, great initiative. Instructions on how to download the assembly instructions are right on the box .. and inside too !
I found out this Arduino-driven Hexapod Robot Kit, like all other kits Freenove offers, was very easy to assemble since the instructions are extensive (from their GitHub Repository), very clear and easy to follow, even if you never dealt with the Arduino environment before. They teach you step-by-step procedures on how to install the Arduino IDE, the necessary drivers to connect to it (CH340) and all the needed libraries that are included in the master file previously downloaded from their GitHub repository, to minimize your assembly and programming time. The Full kit assembly was complete in just two 2-hour classes (a few students even completed the assembly after the 1st class). Note that I have now 14 students to deal with. Hahaha !! The full robot calibration could be achieved in a short hour after that. All instructions and templates are included in the kit, however, since Freenove is a responsible company that has environment in mind, they adopted for a ‘No Paper’ and ‘Green Planet’ policy. For that, you have to download the instructions from their GitHub Repository (the link is provided). The instruction is a PDF format document so, you don’t really have to print it. Like my students did, you can easily follow them on your laptop or, like most of then did, on your tablet.
In any case, should you need support, their outstanding support team is always an email away (Support@Freenove.com) and they put it all over their instruction manual. They are prompt to reply, usually within 12 to 24 hours. Take note they are not just across the street from us, but in China. Taking this factor in consideration, some delay are to be expected, not because of the great distance, but mainly because of the different time zone. The replies are always polite, courteous and to the point. You can feel they really want to help you.
In the actual V3 revision, this great kit uses 2 of the very common 18650 3,7V Lithium FLAT top / NO protection type, and the included remote control uses the most standard 9V (006P format) type. Since this kit originates from China, it was bound to be shipped by air and, unfortunately, the IATA now prohibits Lithium batteries to be airborne without special costly packaging to avoid fire and possible explosion in flight. In order to keep a high air safety standard and to keep the cost down, Freenove decided not to include lithium batteries in their kits. You can however easily obtain the on line, at lower cost.
In conclusion, I greatly recommend this fun kit for anyone that wants to learn about robotics in groups or by themselves. I read a question from a parent that wanted to know if this kit was appropriate to his young son. The answer is YES. As long as your child has some degree of manual dexterity, he will be able to manage to some degree. However, since this child will be dealing with highly sophisticated and delicate electronic components, responsible parents must be advised their child may require some parental supervision and/or guidance.
Thank you for reading and have yourselves a great day !!
