Arduino Engineering Kit REV2 [AKX00022] – Advanced Hands-On Learning Kit for Engineering, Robotics, and Automation with Full Curriculum and Real-World Projects

Excellent engineering grade projects. So nice to see them stepping beyond the beginning kits to develop real world usable learning kits. Kudos!

I saw mentions on install issues but I figured it wouldn't be that bad. Well I've spent the last 7 hours messing around with different drivers, different versions of Matlab, anything I could try and yet I couldn't get the software to connect to the Arduino. Unfortunately you can only see the amount of 1 star reviews from people who also couldn't get the thing to work once you try to install the add-on packages in MATLAB. To sell a borderline faulty product for 300 dollars is embarrassing. Honestly won't even consider buying another Arduino product after this.

Everything was there ,it works I'm happy with this product 👍👍👍

The Rev 1 kits I had BOTH have faulty Hall sensors. The Rev 2 kit I have has incorrectly sized servo arms. Arduino does ABSOLUTELY NO QA on these kits. Then, when you try to get them to correct the problems, they blow you off. Be prepared to do a lot of troubleshooting to get these kits to do what they are advertised. Always double check things are working before using them in a teaching situation.

I really was excited for this product. I've used some of the other Arduino educational kits and really like the educational content and clear instructions. However, this product relies on Matlab and Simulink add-ons which aren't working for me right now. I'll wait to see if I get any technical support - but I would be very cautious about buying this product -- in the best case, I'll have days of back and forth trying to troubleshoot issues and at worse, I'll have sunk $300 on a product that doesn't work and wasted days of effort.

This is a very poor quality kit with terrible instructions that are full of typos and inconsistencies and doesn't communicate with MATLAB 2023. Furthermore, neither Arduino nor Mathworks offers any support. I found dozens of unanswered questions in the forums. Don't buy it. Save your money.
