Do i need a raspberry Pi with me to interface with the robot for changing code etc?

Hi, I was checking out DarkPaw and found out it doesn’t include a raspberry pi board in the kit.
I wanted to know if its absolutely necessary to have one inorder to alter or upload a different program etc

Hello @theshank4747 ,

Welcome to RobotShop community.

Yes, the Raspberry Pi is required in order to control this robot as shown in the tutorial below:

You will also need 2x18650 batteries to power it up.

Let us know if you have further questions.

Thank you!

Quick question, so what can the robot do after assembly and with batteries?
Is it like the RB Pi board is necessary to finish the assembly?

Hello @theshank4747 ,

Thank you for your reply.

The Raspberry Pi is basically the brain of this robot so without it, the robot will not work.

As you can see in the assembly tutorial, the first step includes the raspberry pi:
