User questions & answers

Question:	i want to be sure if the car can turn right or left or just moving forward or backward? can you tell me how much the speed that can go approximately
Answer:	If Opie can read and follow directions, Opie can build it
Question:	I have the v1 car with a pi 3. Will the V2 software work on the v1 car and will I get better control and reliability
Answer:	Quite possibly you have a broken switch. According to my husband, if a motor (which works on gears) works in one direction it will work in the opposite direction. The switch (lever) works off of two wires, one for each direction, so possibly one of the wires of the switch is broken or not connecting for some reason.
Question:	Is this suitable for a 12 yr old
Answer:	Thank you for your interest in the robot. Unfortunately it will not pick up a full beer. A full beer weighs 386 g and the robot is only capable of picking up 100 g. It would definitely be able to pick up an empty beer bottle though.

User questions & answers

Question:	I installing the pc software on a windows 10 and an ubuntu linux system. where is the client/client.py program in either os? i can't find it
Answer:	I don't know about it. Ask the customer support. But they are very poor in responding, my one does not work yet. I tried to contact them lot of times but not final solution yet.
Question:	What is the mobile app that can be used with this
Answer:	Building the car is ok if you can build LEGO TECHNIC Kits, otherwise the 12yr old will need some help. The Software is more difficult, 1, The software runs on a RaspberryPi single card computer. 2. To access the software via the Rpi you need a USB keyboard, USB mouse and a TV with HDMI input, WIFI, and a 5V power supply for the Rpi. also you need a laptop (windows seems best) to control the car once it's built and all software loaded on Rpi and Laptop 3. A UNIX like operating system (Raspbian, on a mini sd card) runs the Rpi so the 12 yr old needs to learn that... Fun but hard unless helpful friends who know Unix stuff. 4, All the software to run the Picar-V is written in PYTHON and can be downloaded from the web. (done by step 3 above), and onto a laptop (widows seems best). Actually if the 12yr old has a interest in programming this kit will expand the 12 yr olds interest and have a lot of fun. But if the 12 yr old looses interest quickly.... This Kit is not for them. I'm 82yr old and built the car in two evenings, The software I've been goofing around with for all summer (3 to 4 months) and I almost have it running (by Christmas I hope). A lot of help is on YouTube so check it out, I hope this helps answer your question. Dan G
Question:	Do I need raspberry pi or can I child use window to code
Answer:	The kit is complete except for the Raspberry Pi (B+, 2 or 3), MicroSD card and a pair of 18650 batteries. You will also need keyboard and monitor for the initial setup of the Raspberry Pi.
Question:	Is this compatible with the raspberry pi
Answer:	If I had to estimate I would say 12 inches at least. Maybe a little more

User questions & answers

Question:	What do you do about missing parts? Missing a M4 grub screw and I just started
Answer:	Greetings - just send an email to their tech support address. They will send you one with no issues. I had a bad camera and they sent me a new one without question.. I would purchase more things from these folks.
Question:	Can protected 18650 batteries be used (they are longer than unprotected ones
Answer:	Not easily, depending on how much longer those are (sorry, I'm unfamiliar with those, but I've read "a few millimeters" depending on circuit). The provided battery holder can possibly accommodate 1.5mm to 2mm extra, by compressing the spring more. If you use a different battery holder, be mindful that it is mounted on a 10cm wide platform between two 3-LED boards, and there seems to be another 1mm at best on each side. Of course, you could enlarge the holes where the LED boards are mounted so to move them out an another millimeter on each side... Alternatively, you could mount the holder a litter closer to the ground and let it overhang over the LED boards... you have about 2 cm between the lower edge of the LEDs and the bottom of the rear wheel platform, and then another 11-12mm to the ground. that seems plenty of clearance if you don't plan on doing rough terrain.... I sincerely hope this helps. Maybe others have a protected set at hand and can test and reply to your question.
Question:	What is the recommended battery supply voltage and current? I want to use a 7.4 5a lipo pack
Answer:	Hi, the kit comes with a battery holder for two 18650 batteries (the batteries need to be purchased separately). You lipo pack should work well, just find a different way to secure it. If you research on their website, it seems that use a GS2678 voltage regulator to step down (a PWM buck converter) to 5V a source that can be up to 25V and it can drive up to 5A loads. An alternative way to power the board (and Pi) is via the USB port on the HAT, that appears to be connected to the 5V rail. Again, look for schematics on their website.
Question:	is it include raspberry pi or do I need to buy
Answer:	Dear, the Raspberry Pi is not included.

Answer:	There's actually a bracket built onto the inside of lid (can't remember if it's the top or bottom. I think bottom) that your 2.5" drive slides into. It's a tight fit, so no need for screws. It has a short SATA cable that runs to the board and provides both power and data.
Question:	How do you attach the heat sink? This is my 1st Pi
Answer:	HX318LS10IBK2/16 is an over kill. You are not going to over clock or have heath issue. Any SODIMM DDR3 1600 or faster but make sure they support 1.35V.
Question:	This kit does not include a fan, right
Answer:	Hello, thank you for your question.Yes, it will recognize and support both at the same time. You can install and use a M.2 SSD and 2.5" device at the same time. You will just have two separate storage options if using both. Best Regards, MITXPC
Question:	My son is asking for this and he is 11. Appropriate
Answer:	Greetings,Great question!The Iris Graphics 6100 is indeed capable of some light 3D gaming. There are a few very good videos showcasing the real-world performance of the Iris 6100 on YouTube. You'll find videos referencing the two titles you've inquired about.That being said, the NUC5i7RYH is not designed as a competitive gaming machine and you should not expect extraordinary performance for modern, 3D game titles.Best regards,MITXPC

User questions & answers

Question:	Which PI versions are support
Answer:	Yes. They can run without problem on the pi 4.
Question:	Doe it come with an automatic docking station when batteries low
Answer:	There is an SD card slot on the shorter side of the case. Please insert the SD card into the slot after assembling the kit.
Question:	Does this come assembled
Answer:	It depends if you're putting it on a case with the fan mounted on tbe bottom or top. It you want to minimize the amount of dust in the case. I put mine pulling air out on the top. This will pull air over the chips and the heat away. If you pull the air out of the case, the new air will come in (mostly) through the hole or slots in the bottom of the case (minimizing dust) and will more evenly cool the entire board.
Question:	Does this kit include a Raspberry Pi
Answer:	Mine is/was 30x30x7mm Mine worked well but failed after a few days. Labists (great service, btw) partially refunded so I could replace it. I ordered these but see they're out of stock now--worked fine so far (two weeks): /gp/product/B0792BW2VH/ NOTE You're probably aware, but remember that the leads are separate and not in a single connector limiting the fan's wires to two adjacent pins. Most PC fans rely on that setup, but your Raspberry Pi doesn't.
