The VEX Robotics Design System: A fully-programmable, innovative kit that lets students design radio-controlled robotic devices and expand the boundaries experimental intelligence. Vex kit is modeled after the parts typically given to high school students competing in the main FIRST competition. Each kit contains everything necessary to build an radio-controlled Erector-set-style robot including a pro-level, six-channel radio controller, a programmable micro controller, and hundreds of nuts, bolts, gears, wheels, and flexible metal bars that you can bend into almost any shape and even cut into pieces. There are over 500 parts in each 2- by 2-foot box. The kit is, in part, intended to fill the gap between the entry-level Lego Mindstorms kits that are currently used in the junior 9- to 14-year-old FIRST competitions (which build only autonomous robots) and the top-level high-school-only competition that includes large, 20-pound-and-over radio-controlled robots. This starter kit contains everything you need to design a robot that lifts, throws and races. The creative possibilities are endless! Features Customize your own robot--unlimited design possibilities with instructions for three configurations Kit lets you design robots with many different functions--4-wheel robots, crawlers, etc. Remote control with alternate frequencies lets you operate multiple robots at the same time Detailed user guide gives you step-by-step instructions to ensure successful creation Programmable for autonomous functioning ability Package Contents Vex Robotics Starter Kit over 500 parts, including three variable-speed motors, programmable micro controller, multiple gears, various wheel types, configurable chassis and much more!
