We initially looked into the DFRobot 4WD Arduino Mobile Platform because of its low cost and feature set.
Ultimately we chose another product instead. However, after doing an extensive review of this product we realized
that we made the wrong choice!
Once we received the DF Robot 4WD Arduino Mobile Platform we quickly opened up and began the review
process. What we noticed right away when we opened the the kit that it had NO INSTRUCTIONS. We were a bit
thrown back because every kit we have ever used came with instructions. Needless to say - we found that the
reason why was because the the kit was so straight forward one could do without them.
Yet another thing we noticed is how much this platform resembled another platform we have worked on
(Lynxmotion). The kit is comes with solid components and is easy to put together.
