Hello new friend of RoboBrrd!




Congrats on your new RoboBrrd Kit! This set of webpages will guide you in how to build one. There are three main steps: building the chassis, assembling the RoboBrrd Brain Board, and programming RoboBrrd. You can be as creative with RoboBrrd as you want!

We check our kits thoroughly before they are shipped out. If there is something to your dissatisfaction, please let us know by emailing erin@robobrrd.com.

Note: you will need a FTDI cable to program the RoboBrrd Brain Board. We recommend the FTDI Friend or FTDI cable.



Some of the webpage is still under construction, so please bear with us as we try to get the documentation up as quickly as possible :)

The first step is to start assembling the chassis of RoboBrrd, you can get started here!

Get started building!
Let others know you are starting your journey of building a RoboBrrd! They will be able to cheer you on along the way! :)

3. Soldering (part 2)

There are more components to be added to the Brain Board, more steps to follow with accompanying photos

Soldering (part 2)

4. Soldering (part 3)

Even more soldering on the Brain Board!
