An acceptable parts assortment, but somehow not really thought out of the didactic side

Well. The compilation of components is great so, but only to a lesser extent: there is an experimental setup for the breadboard is too small: of the dot matrix display. Since two breadboards are then needed. The slide switch does not fit of the contacts here in a breadboard. The manual is printed very small and blurred, the exact Part names I'm looking there but to no avail. Important: The product data sheets of the components are on the CD. Especially for transistors, LEDs, ICs and other active components that is an absolute must.

The very small printed manual contains some important instructions for interconnection, but: the source code on the CD will not be discussed. That brings some challenges: Basic knowledge of C and in dealing with the GCC compiler are required, as is the transfer of the program code on the Raspberry Pi The manual does not in the function of the individual components a, well, it does not explain how those. are to be interconnected in principle. The manual is written in English partly incomprehensible even from a linguistic point of view and makes a pretty revision needy impression. the manual-PDF on CD is of printing quality was much better than the small enclosed booklet.

The contents of the CD
* Folder with the product data sheets
* Folder fritzing.0.8.7.b.pc
* Folder Fritzing_SCH
* Folder RPi_Superkit_Video
* Folder Rpi_Superkit_Code
* File Getting Started with Raspberry Pi.doc (nice detail, in English)
* File Superkit manual fpr Raspberry PI.PDF - Adobe Reader required for this purpose an Asian font package

The C programs on the CD are uncommented, but readable. You use the library wiringpi.h even softPwm.h and other libraries. for program understanding knowledge of the function of these libraries is a prerequisite. For the LCD Python programs are available.

The starter was continued in a printed piece of paper with that said, I still will enter a 5-star rating.

My conclusion: The parts assortment is ok for independent investigative learning. You should be familiar with some Linux and programming, further you have to want to work into designing electrical circuits independently - the focus is on the hardware side driving and readout of the components. The set is probably not for beginners, but for individuals with specialist knowledge entsprechem - probably thought at least students in engineering, computer science and physics. Buy more a complementary Breadboard - you'll need it. A soldering iron, you should have for the connectors of the LCD display and the motor also. To its credit, the evaluation therefore also the price - although I would certainly for a better guide and pay a little more, which then saves time and nerves.
