Eddie robot from the box

Hi there,

I have started my career with electronics design, especially microprocessors. For ten years I have been involved in geophysics and marine systems design, especially software design. In recent years I have maintained computer networks and designed databases.

The common factor has been Microsoft. The Microsoft slogan is "Be what's next". Then I found Eddie:
Opening package

That will be my next thing!

I ordered it and the story begins:




Starting point , see the air pump:)



Figuring out ?




Motor, gearbox and wheels installed


Upside down, when batteries installed


Electronics installation and READY!
First life signs, see lamps!


The quality of the parts was very good. This is not a toy. Actually the only problem I got muscle aches when installing multiple screws by screwdrivers.
