First, it should be noted that this "imitation" not the "original" Arduino but one. Since it is open hardware Arduino platform is in the word "replica" so not quite accurate. A contrast to the "original" there is neither the port nor with the drivers - everything worked immediately.
For Packaging:
The set comes in a reasonable carton can be reclosed and thus can be used for storage. The items are each packaged in bags. Unfortunately, some components (resistors, capacitors on the sensor, some LEDs) were with me, and apparently also in others, bent, which is why I deducted a star.
The scope of supply:
The set contains everything to first projects with the Arduino build and ausgebig experimenting with it. Votes would possibly two potentiometer more to realize the import of multiple channels. Since such components and Miscellaneous other accessories can be purchased very cheap, there is no penalty for this. Unfortunately, however, was to elicit no light of RGB LED, here I have to again further testing.
To function:
I have not had time to test all the hardware (LCD module, ultrasonic sensor, the servo or IR LED and receiver), but all I've built has (with the right program) works perfectly (except for the RGB LED). Egg contrast to the "original" can not be determined.
Conclusion:
I am a beginner in the field of microcontroller, but with the Arduino (or this variant) makes you nothing wrong. (I work with Arduino as this platform is used in my university.) The programming can be learned relatively easy, also because there are hundreds of finished projects, instructions and examples on the Internet inspired the one calling, and a bail out if you do not more progresses. For quite tricky problems can also get the help of various forums.
I am sure to be able to use the possibilities of this system at some point in the house or in any project.
If you helped this review, I would be glad if the show by clicking on "Yes". That shows me that this work was not in vain;)
