Ta-Da! Happy Binary Day!!! (11-11-11)
What better way to compliment an important holiday than something that brings people together (remember, it's Remembrance Day
)... The EZ-Robot Complete Kit is now available!
Following the overwhelming response from the Real Wall-E Video, I found myself in a challenging position. With so many questions and feedback, it is evident that everyone wants to impress their friends and family with a home-built robot. Providing the community with the EZ-B Robot Controller alone was not enough. A kit was required which provides the hardware, software and educational tutorials for everyone to build an impressive voice controlled, color/facial/motion tracking, self-navigating robot over a weekend! The EZ-Robot Project has the passion to fulfill those requirements...
The solution? The Complete Robot Kit!.
I have been ordering and testing parts; I have ordered and tested more servos than one man ever should! I've sent countless emails and had language barrier phone conversations at 4 am to locate oversea suppliers. And most of all, I've found the most robust camera for robotics. And after all that...

Everything you need to start building robots right away!
Kind of. There will be the complete kit (with different contents) and the developers kit. Not much detail has been given on these so far but some has, have a look around the forum and you should find the topic where DJ has given away as much as he can about the new board and kits.
I have not get kit. Paid 12.12.2013. Liar.
@ivsigors You bought a pre-order item (the v4), which it says on the shop page. This was a page for the v3. If you want to see the status on the new v4, check about the forum and your inbox for updates.
If you want, I can tell you the situation:
The earlier you pre-ordered, the faster you will get it when shipping starts. Which means since I ordered in november, I would get it sooner/in the same batch as you, but someone who preordered 2 years ago is higher priority. Which means you'll be lower on the list. But I think they'll ship fairly fast, so it should be no problem.
@ivsigors As @Cupcakehat has said, your order on that date would have been a pre-order and this would have been made clear at the time as well as in the orders page. Your order will be shipped once shipping of the pre-orders starts. These pre-orders date back to September therefore you may not be in line for one of the first shipped but the backlog will be taken care of.
While you may have ordered some time ago we are all in the same boat and all waiting, we can all understand your frustrations we do not welcome posts of such a tone and nature and they are generally not tolerated on these forums. Please read the notes on your order, emails in your inbox and other topics regarding the V4s and revolution robots before claiming anyone is a liar, your experience here and the amount of help you will receive should you need it will ultimately be based on your attitude.
@ivsigors... nobody has the kit yet. It has not shipped yet....
It says it will take 5 to 7 weeks for shipping but some people says it was there in a few days how long will it take to ship to South Africa
@society.. Actual shipping time will take a week or two to pretty much anywhere in the world... However, the product isn't released yet as is still in pre-order... The first batch of shipments is rumoured to ship very soon... (I mean for those of us who ordered way back in 2013, anyway). If you order today you'll most likely be at the back of the line... Maybe 5-7 weeks as mentioned... Sooner you put your order in, the sooner you'll get it...
