ELEGOO Conqueror Robot Tank Kit

We got this for our 8-9 year old boy for Christmas and he couldn’t wait to open. Very well made. Took a little bit of help from dad to do the electronics part but more so just to make sure he didn’t break off any of the connectors. His 11 year old sister enjoys playing with it as well. Product is very well made and sturdy. Battery life is pretty good for this having a metal chassis. He has run it for 30-40min with no sign of battery running low yet. We have taken it off road and goes through about any rough terrain however the bottom sensor hangs low so it will bottom out. We removed that and just drive using the phone instead of using that mode. Overall recommend this product to feed any kids curiosity and creativity.

Fun kit. This kit is great because it is intricate enough to feel like you are actually building something while being easy enough for a novice. For someone new to robots this provides a good basis for what various do and how they work. There is no soldering, and in the end you have a nice RC vehicle with FPV capability that is fun to use.

The instructions are amazing, and through. And if you download the app before building it, the instructions are even better on the app. If you can put Legos together you can do this. Operates great out of the box. No programs to upload or flash. It just works with the remote and the app. Lots of fun with the kids. First upgrade will be lights. It is hard to see in FPV in a dark room. The line following circuit board gets caught on everything. I say if your not using it don't install it. Without it, it will climb mountains. I did notice some screws loose after hours of play. So I recommend getting some blue LockTite. Great Kit!

Wanted to get into learning to build servo robots from parts but needed a starting point. This tank kit seemed perfect. The kit comes well packaged and very well organized. All of the parts are labeled and photo instructions fairly easy to follow. The frame is very sturdy, which is great, but that also causes an issue with connectivity. The primary control feature is IR (infra-red, like the TV remote). Unfortunately, the straight-line connection is blocked by the metal frame except from directly behind and low as the frame is not enclosed at the back. That means if you are standing directly above it or turn it 90º or more you lose control until you change where you are standing. The IR sensor is soldered in, so it cannot be moved on top of the tank unless you use the alternate assembly instructions which places the entire computer board on top of the frame--which is ugly and clunky looking. The secondary form of remote control is supposed to be via wi-fi using the Elegoo app; however, I have not been able to get most of the features to work properly. The app shows it is connected and I am able to see the camera feed; however, the controls to move the direction of the camera are not working. Even more importantly, the tank does not respond to any of the app controls or settings via wi-fi either. The troubleshooting part of the Elegoo site didn't really offer much help apart from a YouTube tutorial video. It drives a little crooked out of the box. The tutorial only recommends making sure it is flat so the sensor can calibrate when you turn it on. That unfortunately didn't help. Overall, I think this is a really cool kit with lots of features. I had hoped they would work perfectly straight out of the box. Instead, it looks like I will need to spend some extra time making minor adjustments. Still a pretty good kit to start with.

Awesome kit, my 9-yr loves it.

the item arrived quickly and had a lot of stuff in it. It was well-organized, and my daughter's class was able to put it together, but they had issues with a piece or pieces burning. So, carefully follow the instructions. It would be best if they had better instructions. For the price, it is not very user-friendly, but the item looks great once assembled. it is definitely a worthwhile project to take on.

I don’t review products, but this one is really good. Everything works, instructions are well written and clear. You can rewrite the whole code and there is good margin for you to extend, add new sensors, better line tracking logic, camera processing.

A mi hijo le encantó el proceso de armado.

Excelente robot y muy recomendable para diversos usos

Kit con todo lo necesario para conocer algunas piezas utilizadas en electrónica, además de inicios en programación. Es el segundo robot de esta marca, ambos de regalo para mi hija de 9 años, y ha quedado muy contenta. Su emoción empieza con la apertura de la caja ya que le gusta armar cosas y con este robot estuvo muy entretenida, y lo que le sigue al armado también le divierte.

Excelente producto, llegó en excelentes condiciones, fácil de armar siempre y cuando se sigan las instrucciones.
