BUILD THE TEST ROBOTS
First, follow these instructions to build the balancing
robot chassis that will be the base of all the balancing
robot models in this kit.
Build chassis 1 (below) first. Use it to test out the control
app, following the instructions starting on pages 9–10.
Then, you can build chassis 2 and 3, and test them out.
How do they function compared to chassis 1? How do you
need to change the balance settings to get them to work?
Before building anything, insert the batteries into
the battery compartment of the robotic base unit.
Instructions for inserting and removing batteries:
1. With a small Phillips-head precision screwdriver,
remove the screw securing the battery
compartment cover shut.
2. Press the tab on the transparent battery
compartment cover inward and then lift the
cover off the compartment.
3. Insert or change the batteries according to the
indicated plus-minus polarity markings.
