Hi dear members!
Today we have a very nice invitation: 5 of you can get and review a nice mBot robot kit from makeblock for free!
I you want to get a chance just tell us:
That you are a member for more than 6 months, with at least 2 publications of enough quality- It is at the discretion of makeblock to decide that quality, but you just try your best! ;-)
I am actually working on building some educational robots for my FRC club! This would be a fantastic opportunity for both the creators of mBot and my team to learn about educational robots! I’m obviously younger, so I might have unique insight into the robot as well.
These are great recources for all reviewers, and I am happy to have them as a proven format.
If you’re still looking for reviewers… 1. Long time member. Does authoring a book count as 2 publications? Reviewed a Labview book before.
2. Seems like a very educational and easy to build and develop robot.
3. Of course…“all your robots are belong to us”
Iv been a member for over 6 months I don’t have any publications tho ,I’m new to the robot hobby and have been looking for my first kit to build so if u want a review from a beginners view and there’s still an space open give me a shout , thank u
Thanks for your interest! Well, you have a quite enough things published here, so I think it should work. We’ll send your proposal to Makeblock and let’s see. Good luck!
Thanks for your details. We’ll send your proposal to Makeblock and let’s see. I suggest you to publish some robots and/or related stuff if you want/can so you’ll have more chances as it serves to show your review and written skills also to reward people who share in LMR. But it’s up to you of course
1. Member for over 3 years with some projects with many pictures and info and some walkthrough posts;
2. I really like the versatility of Makeblock kits, with several holes, allowing the user to always expand the project and match parts from several kits. About mBot what I like most is the chassis, which has a great finish and is also versatile. Can still be expanded with parts from other kits when you want to advance;
1) I have been an LMR member for about 4 1/2 years. My publications on LMR have included my entry into the DoodleBot Contest, a story about a set of basic robots I built with my kids, and my journey in creating VADER, based on Dagu’s Service Droid Kit. The VADER project stared with a review of the kit, assembling it, and then working to build off it’s capabilities.
2) The mBot intrigues me because of of the extra tabs and holes on the front. I’m thinking about what they could be used to expand the mBot to possible draw or pick up small objects. The colors and finish on the chassis looks sharp as well. I’m also very interested in the descriptions of how to program the mBot. I have 3 kids ages 13 to 9 that might learn alot from being a part of it’s review.
Good luck!
