hours to assemble the "Humanoid" robot and get it to make its first move. Ubtech obviously spent a lot of time on the 3D step by step assembly instructions. They were flawless and we had no issues understanding the build. After we finished, the app has several pre-programmed moves that make the robot "Dance", or move side to side, etc. But that is where my initial enthusiasm wore off. There is no substantive instructions on how to program the robot to do other things or to use the "Blockly" snap together programming language. No youtube videos, nothing on the UBTECH website and no "Community" to ask questions. So I have been trying to figure this out on my own for the last several weeks but it really is like trying to learn a foreign language. Several times I have entered an incorrect code or pressed an incorrect button and the robot will flop to the tabletop or go "Limp" and drop hard onto the ground. So overall it is worth the money and I am glad I purchased it. I haven't given up on learning to program it, however, without programming instructions or help, it is little more than an expensive radio controlled car.

nd worked flawlessly once I received it. Their customer support staff was also pretty quick to check to ensure I received the replacement part in a timely manner and ensure everything was working correctly. So, it appears that post-holiday UBTech Support is quick to address customer issues and provide replacements/support for defective items.I still wish the robot came in a more user-friendly box, but I cannot complain about the instruction/programming app, as it allows the user to see the robot/model from multiple angles while assembling. Selecting programs and running them once the robot is built is a cinch. Now that robots/models built with the JIMU Inventor kit actually works, I am quite happy with the product and will introduce it to my class to demonstrate fully articulated robotic models. Hopefully UBTech/JIMU provides some type of IDE to program creations using a programming language beyond drag and drop blocks, but we will see where things go. There is a lot of potential with this robotics kit!NOTE: This product has great potential, but as others have reported the battery is a VERY common problem. If your battery flashes green/red while "charging, and does not eventually display a solid green light, you probably have a defective unit and should troubleshoot it through UBTech's website.This would be an excellent robotics kit for what is in it, but there are some flaws. If the battery does not work, you're basically left with a 2/3-scale LEGO EV3 kit and 16 servos for floppy joints (no power, no rigidity), so user-replaceable parts are a must.Other areas needing improvement:- Everything is packaged in a nice box, yet all of the multitude of tiny pieces are in baggies within cardboard boxes. While it looks really nice, the cardboard will not fair well with repeated use and the baggies make it difficult to hunt items needed in the builds. Dumping the pieces into the small cardboard boxes is not any better, as there are holes at the top/bottom of the boxes for removing from the compartments in the "book." This kit should have come in a more durable plastic box with easily accessible compartments or at least replace the cardboard boxes with more durable plastic or vinyl boxes.- The LEGO-like pieces are not consistent in shape/fill. The beams are not smooth all around, but have small hollow areas and many have small holes at one end (perhaps from the manufacture process).- The manual is only available on a Tablet or phone, no physical copy is available. While I was quite upset with this at first, I found during the build process that it was nice to be able to rotate the model around to see where things line up and fit together, yet a physical build guide is essential for many reasons: 1) if support for the product ends, the app may/will eventually stop working too; i.e., no more build guides, 2) not ideal for a classroom environment as no PC component, and 3) some people like to review all steps in advance by flipping through the build guide, using an app limits this option.- No current IDE for programming the robot from your PC, though pre-programmed routines are available through the app for each model. Not being able to write and design programs for the robot limits its overall functionality. While there may be a "rag-doll" mode to program, this leaves much to be desired in the form of learning to program robots.- I did have issues running the app the first few times, as it would crash, but this stopped after the first three (3) times. I am running the app on a 9.7" Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 with the latest updates, so platform should not be the issue. NOTE: I have had no other issues using the Android app since the initial errors mentioned earlier. The app runs smoothly, connecting quickly to the robot and build screens. It will also remember where you left off for when you are unable to complete a build in a single setting (good luck with that!).*** After finally receiving customer support and a replacement part, I would recommend this robot for anyone wanting to build some great robotic models. The potential use cases is limited to walking robots, but is pretty interesting using the 16 servos for a wide range of movements. There are no wheels or sensors included in the robot, so it does fall if it moves too quickly and there is no way for it to detect anything outside of what it running inside the controller. Maybe an expansion kit will come out that adds sensors or wheels... :)

ction so you can switch different angles to assemble the robots. It comes with several official movements and you can also create your own movement. Now, the most fun part is the coding section that allows you to use logistical statement to code with blocks. We currently built the Human and Elephant, they are super flexible (can do back flip and hand stand etc.). Will build the rest of the models with children soon and then let them to try something by their own imagination.I see a lot of reviews complain about the battery issue but none of mine has such cases (tips: charge the grey brain box before you start to build so you can play with them once you finish building). I think UBTECH has fixed this and really want to see more great products from UBTECH. It will also be great if they can provide future sensor add-on package since I saw lots of sensor function in the coding part.Overall, I am very satisfied with this great product and highly recommend this to who wants to buy a coding/educational robot for their lovely kids.

le to discharge. Both kits batteries are showing near 0 volts and will not take a charge. This is unfortunate as the kit looks to be very well put together and interesting to use for my 10 year old.
