OWI Wireless Robotic Arm Edge

Mon fils de 9 ans et moi avons pris l'après-midi pour mettre cela ensemble. C'était parfois un peu délicat, mais nous nous sommes parfaitement bien entendus. Il l'utilise régulièrement depuis près d'un an maintenant sans aucun problème. S'accroche bien !

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my son and when we were assembling the arm we found out that the manufacturer put a completely wrong motor for one of the motors with a shorter wire, so one of the movements is simply not working because the wire does not reach the controlling unit. Now my son is very disappointed with his gift. about the product itself, the motors are very noisy and the clipper (grabber) is not holding onto the objects very well. RobotShop: Dear Arash, we are sorry to hear that you are not 100% happy - Owi does the troubleshooting directly, we have sent you the details.

This product is an overpriced price of garbage that has no power at all. For starters the thing is near impossible to put together because of all the loose pieces. The gears used on this arm are cheap and tiny which means tons of gear slippage. When I finally put the thing together it could barely lift anything because the motor are the diameter of a dime plus the rubber pads on the gripper can’t hold anything because the object always slides off. The thing is really noisy and the arm doesn’t have code built in so that it doesn’t extend past where it’s supposed to so when you move it past that point it just crunches the gears and makes a really awful noise.

My 9 year old son and I took the afternoon putting this together. It was a bit tricky at times but we got it together perfectly. He's used it on a regular basis for nearly a year now with no problems. Grips well!
