Need a helping hand? We’ve got just the thing… the Robotic Arm is a great way to introduce children to the world of robotics. This amazing kit allows children to put together their own robot and then operate it. The arm lets you control the gripper to open and close and has a lifting capacity of 100 grams. The amazing technology on the arm includes a searchlight on the gripper and a safety gear audible indicator to prevent any potential injury or damage to the gears. The total command functionality makes it possible for you to predict the robot’s behavior, and the extended life of the gearbox means prolonged control of the robot. Recommended for children ages 10 and up.
