## Overview

The Adeept 5-DOF Robotic Arm Kit is a hands-on STEM educational tool designed for teens and hobbyists to build, program, and control a 5-axis robotic arm. Fully compatible with Arduino IDE, it offers multiple control methods including manual potentiometer knobs and PC graphical software. The kit includes acrylic structural parts, servo motors, an OLED display, and all necessary hardware, but requires assembly and separate purchase of 2x18650 batteries or USB power. Updated digital tutorials and code ensure a modern learning experience, making it an ideal project for coding enthusiasts eager to dive into robotics.

## Description

Important Tips:1.This robotic arm kit is loose pieces, you need to assemble it yourself; 2. Batteries NOT included, you need to buy 2x18650 battery by yourself. You can also supply power directly through the Micro USB interface without using batteries. Compatibility:The Main Controller - Adeept Robotic Arm Driver Board is developed based on ATMEGA328P and it is fully compatible with Arduino IDE. You should select the board model as (Arduino UNO R3) in the Arduino IDE.Tutorials and Codes: Detailed tutorials and complete code(Arduino C/C++ and Processing) are provided(Paper tutorials are NOT available as the tutorials are updated frequently). The download link can be found on the card in the box.Package List: 1 Set Structure Parts(Acrylic) 1x Adeept Robotic Arm Driver Board(Compatible with Arduino) 1x 0.96'' OLED Display 6x AD002 Servo 1x Extension Cable for Servo 1x Square Bearing Turntable 1x Battery Holder 1x Cross Socket Wrench 1x Cross Screwdriver(3mm) 1x Cross Screwdriver(2mm) 1x Winding Pipe 4x Suction Cup 1x Micro USB Cable Other Necessary Accessories(Wires, Nuts, Screws, Copper Standoffs, Nylon Standoffs, etc.)

Review: Bluetooth not working - I bought a bluetooth unit and connect it, but it does not work
Review: Wow - this has been great fun to assemble! After reading the other comments I was a little sceptical, but the assembly instructions were really clear and the quality of the components exceeded expectations. First, the instructions come in a rar/zip, and the download is linked to on the box. The directory structure in the archive is a little chaotic! The assembly instructions in particular can be found in Tutorials-pdf/5. Assembly of the Robotic Arm.pdf, and it's a good idea by starting the base, and pausing after mounting the board. I say that because the servos needed to be primed to a 90 degree angle, which can be done by plugging them in to the board, and running the relevant script. The script simply angles the servos correctly, so that when you attach the rocker-arms etc then you are attaching them at the same angle as the instructions. It was straightforward enough (I'm a software consultant by trade with experience in electronics, but with patience and a little help I think a 14y would be able to manage). The engineering behind the arm is quite impressive. And building the arm was great fun. To be honest, I bought this for my six year old as a summer holiday project, but after looking through the instructions decided the build was too complex. However, he's already using Scratch Junior at school (a wysiwyg programming environment) so we're going to code the arm together using a similar approach. I'd say the main advice I'd give someone when following the instructions would be to trust the model diagrams over the physical diagrams. Each step has a few models and a few photos - I found the photos to be a little inaccurate (i.e. when determining the angles of the parts connecting to the rocker-arms, the models are correct, the photos not). Also worth noting that some of the scripts need libraries installing before they will build. Searching for the name of the header should fix this in most cases (e.g. for "#include ", go to Tools>Manage Libraries.. and search for search Adafruit_GFX, install the "Adafruit GFX Library" that show up and it should then work - do for each include that generates an error). Final tip - I found a torch on desertcart that cost ten quid and came with 4 x 18650 batteries, so now I can work the arm without being connected to a computer via the potentiometers, and I can see where I'm going at night. I though this was a good price for four of the batteries, and they arrived next day.. No charger though, but I'll come to that when I come to that! All in all, very impressive, well worth the price for the joy it brought building and the possibilities that extending this will bring.. Might buy another in four years and see if my boy wants to build it with me :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***V on 30 October 2021*

This is my first Arduino kit as the starter kit I ordered still has not arrived. While watching videos on what projects can be done on Arduino starter kit. Saw this product with next day delivery and bought it.. The Good: - A single Arduino Board which can control 6 servo motors, an OLED screen and power supply for the motors. There is a Bluetooth and Wifi option but not sure what is required to use those. - Tutorial pdf on how to control the board using Arduino IDE, Python and a few others tools but it is not detailed, just enough to demonstrate it can be done. - There are extra part for every screw, nut, or bolt for assembling the kit. - Although the Robot Arm and the Potentiometer on-board only have 5 Servo motors, it maybe possible to control a 6DOF Robot Arm via software coding. The Bad: - The arm is fragile and can break easily. Tiny screws and nuts and took 6 hours to build and another few more hours to adjust as I skipped some steps shown on the video. The motor should be 'primed?' before assembly to set to 'default' position. - The PDF or the Video may not match the kit, so I have to watch both side by side during assembly. - The 18650 battery maybe a problem to those who does not have it yet, not only you need to buy this battery, may also need a charger. - The CH340 chip has some extra steps every time Arduino IDE is launch as the driver seems to lock some Arduino files. - The finish product sketch for the kit is not available on-line. Once a tutorial sketch is uploaded, there is no way to restore the original sketch and must quickly learn programming to enable the features. Edit: The default sketch maybe is the Learning sketch available on the tutorial. - The Servo1 on the base under the ball bearing was difficult to secure with the servo screw as it is blocked by Servo2. At first, have to use Adeept extra screw which was longer and can secure it but later decided to remove the Servo 2 with the Arm and use the shorter servo screw for Servo1. Overall, this product is good enough to learn Arduino/Python programming for the servos and the OLED display. Not sure yet what can be done for the bluetooth and wifi options if it can be enabled.
