BeGrit Universal Ultimate UNO R3 Starter Kit for 100% Arduino-Compatible, UNO R3 Board Includes

Ordered just before Christmas and was glad to see it came in on time. My son will have lots of hours of fun with this.

This kit is a lot of fun. I used the Beginning Arduino Book by Michael McRoberts to get started. The 25 free lessons mentioned in the kit are now available in MSWord.doc format at the funingaming.com web site. Just click on the web page support button to access the lessons. I was so surprised to see the functionality included in the Arduino 328 CPU chip that I bought a second kit for my grandkids. Enjoy! Attached are two projects I had fun with. The UltraSound Distance detector and the Humidity and Temperature experiment. Search via Google and you'll find lots of projects.

I ordered this cause im very new to arduino I found the lessons very vague and most missing somthing like no wiring diagram or no code or the parts didn't match the lesson ide look for a better kit the parts are the cheeper u can get and the supposed step by step is more like step by

The kit I received did not include the Ultrasonic Range Finder.

Nice set for a beginner. Thanks.

All tho a couple of the sample projects didn't work because wiring differences I was able to use each part in this kit with different projects.

I got the starter kit. It does NOT have all the components shown in this picture. There is also a difference between instructions in the book, instructions in the video on the sunfounder site, and to a certain extent, between the code from Aurdino and the configurations shown in either instructions. You do end up relying on thre Arduino site, which, as someone else said, makes you feel guilty. On the positive side, sunfounder support (email) is good. And of course, it is interesting and fun.

I found two leds burned. But remain parts is working very well.

Great kit. When it comes to an UNO projects the most important things are sensors, controls, and devices you can connect to the UNO. This set as a great assortment useful for any project. As well there two different bread boards, a shield and lots of wires so you'll be able to hookup your own devices. I used the UNO much. I've done about 6 example projects, and then built two custom projects. One to measure wind speed, and another to measure frequencies. I recommend picking up a few digital to analog converters to go with this. The UNO board can convert analog to digital, but only if you are extremely careful to regulate the input to the proper voltage range. A converter makes it much easier to connect any spare electronics you have around the house. For example, if you want to measure the voltage off a motor to determine rate of rotation. No kit has everything you'll need for every project. The main thing to look for in a kit is does it have what you need to do some sample projects and enough to be able to add your own stuff later. This kit fit the bill perfectly.

Great kit, but instructions for learning are written by someone with bad grammar, meaning that you can't understand any of it

Had everything but the processor on the audino burned out under normal use.

nice
