Review: Buen kit de robótica - Excelente kit complementario de otros accesorios de robótica. Review: HIghly recommended for fun and education - I bought 2 cutebots and they work well. It is a great edicational experience and fun to program it. Coding systems like the cutebot should be part of elementary school curricula. Children can start coding it with Blocks and then maybe continue with Javascript and microPython. The main problem may be that many or most teachers may need to be first educated in this area. Free giveaways to qualified teachers by school systems and well designed YouTube tutorial videos may help a lot with this. The cutebot is a well designed robot with many useful, interesting sensors and things to control. elecfreaks sells an updated and expanded version robot. I tested te basic cutebot with the sample Javascript programs and they generally worked. The sample Javascript infrared remote control program doesn't seem to work. Suggest that the cutebot be shipped with the inexpensive remote control, possibly as an option. It is inconvenient to order it separately from elecfreaks and shipping is quite expensive for such a small and light device. Would be nice to have a Javascript and microPython function to read the IR sensor directly for various applications. Hope elecfreaks publishes on their website how to program in Javascript and microPython the I/O pins on the robot's back and what connector to use for this. Would be nice to include a few connectors in the kit for those who want to attach various things to the robot. I bught an elecfreaks Pico:ed micro controller and was able to use it with microPython to control the robot, for example to follow a track. The motor control is very sensitive to battery voltage level. Blocks, Javascript and microPython functions ought to be provided to read the voltage level. With experiencer users could determine at what voltage the batteries need to be changed. ## Features - CUTE & MINI The simple color combination makes the appearance look more charming, and the cutebot is very comfortable to hold. - Structural Features - Elecfreaks Cutebot is a smart coding car with a dual speed motor that delivers strong power. - CREATIVITY - Cutebot's rich graphic programming blocks allow micro:bit beginners to learn programming from the simplest to the most complex. They can achieve distance tracking, avoid obstacles, follow lines, etc. - Extension port: (1) Sensor extension: we can do more experiments through the 3PIN port. (2) Building Block Extension: This microbit robot supports building block, we can create various cases. Better your interest in programming. - Tips: (1) Not include micro: bit board and AAA battery. (2) The ultrasonic module must be connected to the front port, otherwise the cutebot will not work. (3) Tutorial Wiki Get: Please enter "wiki.elecfreaks.com/en/" to learn.

The new tutorial link is “ https://wiki.elecfreaks.com/en/microbit/microbit-smart-car/microbit-samrt-cutebot/ ”, Thanks! **Q: I am trying to use these for the first time with micro:bit v2 but I cannot get the micro:bit program to run. I am baffled. Any ideas?** A: First, Please check whether the microbit can successfully download the program. Second, Please check whether the cutebot has inserted the ultrasonic wave into the front row of the front interface, otherwise it cannot be driven. If you still have problems, you can send Amazon email to contact us, thank you! **Q: Does it include the bbc micro:bit board?** A: Elecfreaks Microbit Smart Cutebot Kit for Kids BBC Micro:bit DIY Programmable Robot Car for STEM Education School Student Project(Without Micro:bit) comes without a MicroBit. I bought the micro:bit go kit, Pocket-Sized, programmable Computer with Cable and Battery Pack and they both work well together. **Q: Have autistic child likes to play with roomba I need something in that area that tough** A: I think the CuteBot would survive rough handling as well any robot kit. But I wouldn't describe it as tough. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buen kit de robótica *by M***Z on 27 March 2025* Excelente kit complementario de otros accesorios de robótica. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HIghly recommended for fun and education *by L***R on 23 September 2023* I bought 2 cutebots and they work well.

The is one of the best value STEM kits you’ll find. It’s easy to use, fun, and has a wide range of possibilities. For beginners: it has a drag and drop code interface just like scratch. It includes several pre-made code examples and tutorials including line following and obstacle avoiding. A few years ago I remember seeing kids line following robots for over $100! For intermediate advanced users: you can program in python, it includes a bunch of extra pins for makers to add their own additions. I had a similar robot as a teenager in a robotics class that was way harder to use and did less for about the same price as this one. Tips: make sure to get the microbit board, it’s not included. It has several other after market add-ins including a game controller available. If you/your kids like gaming, you may want to try the game add-on instead first (same vendor). If they aren’t into gaming, this one is great. You can also get a microbit board first and after they explore options with that get this car robot add on. I got this for my 7 year old, he was a little young for it at first. It had lots of super easy tutorials, decent reading skills or adult guidance are required. Now that he’s eight and better at reading, he’s able to do everything himself. It lasted well the last year. Be careful not to put the batteries in backwards, that will fry the circuit board. Customer service is very responsive and helpful. ## Frequently Bought Together - ELECFREAKS microbit Mini Cutebot Kit Compatible with BBC Micro:bit V2 and V1, DIY Programmable Robot Car Kit, STEM Educational Project, Graphical Makecode Coding Car(Without Micro:bit and AAA Battery) - KEYESTUDIO Micro:bit V2 Go Kit Original Microbit V2 Starter Kit, with Micro:bit V2, Battery Holder, Micro USB Cable - ELECFREAKS microbit Game Joystick Wireless Control Handle by micro:bit STEAM Education DIY Graphical Programming Controller(Without Micro:bit) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/447830934-microbit-mini-cutebot-kit-compatible-with-bbc-micro-bit-v2](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/447830934-microbit-mini-cutebot-kit-compatible-with-bbc-micro-bit-v2) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-10-10*
