Using the AdaBox 002 Mini Robot Rover is a breeze. First, assemble all the parts together. It's plug - and - play, so you don't need to solder anything. Put the 4 AA batteries in the battery holder and switch it on. After building the robot, download the free Bluefruit Connect app on your iOS or Android phone. Pair your phone with the Feather Bluefruit LE on the robot using Bluetooth. Then you can start controlling your robot friend. Remember, this kit doesn't come with a lithium - ion battery or collectible pin, and there's no free shipping. You'll need to buy a ~500mAh LiPoly battery separately. If you're an international customer, this is currently your only option to get an AdaBox. For subscribers who missed earlier boxes, it's a great way to pass the time before ADABOX 003 arrives. To maintain your robot, keep it away from moisture and rough handling. Check the connections regularly to make sure everything is plugged in properly.
