4WD Smart Car Robot V2.0, Programmable DIY Robotics Starter Kit for Arduino for Uno R3,17 Electronics Projects/STEM Educational/Science Coding Robot Kit for Teens Adults,15+

My boys built it with their grandad such good fun and learnt a lot

very nice item

Coding fauiler, no guidence, not for biggeners or even for advanced level.

I really wanted to like this kit, but it ended up being a frustrating experience for me. While the KEYESTUDIO 4WD Smart Car does physically work (the components power on when connected), the lack of pre-programming and difficulty with getting the software to work made it unusable for me. As someone who is still learning, I was expecting it to be a bit more beginner-friendly. I tried programming it using the Arduino IDE (Uno software), but couldn’t get it to communicate properly. I even attempted to follow online instructions and downloaded additional files, but the process was overly complicated and didn’t work in the end. Now I have a robot that’s just sitting there, unprogrammed and unused — and honestly, I don’t even feel comfortable showing it to others because it doesn’t do anything. ⚠️ Suggestions for Others: This might be a better fit for someone with advanced Arduino or robotics experience. If you're new to coding or Arduino, be prepared for a steep learning curve with little guidance. I wish the kit came with preloaded code or a more intuitive setup guide, especially for beginners. Final thoughts: I love the idea behind this STEM kit, but the execution didn’t meet expectations — at least not for someone without prior coding experience. I hope future versions make setup easier or include better support and documentation.
