Hi,
We are interested in getting a good and versatile robotics kit for our son. He is familiar with building circuits using Snap Circuits and has been doing Scratch programming and has also just started to play with Python. He is 8 years old.
- We have been looking into the great Makeblock kits and are not sure which is currently the better and most up-to-date set of the following two:
mBot Ultimate 2.0
mBot Ranger 3-in-1
I noticed the following:
The mBot Ultimate 2.0 has the MegaPi whereas the mBot Ranger has the ‘newer’ Me Auriga.
It also seems that the Me Auriga has different accessories (sensors) available, which all seem newer than the ones for the MegaPi unit. The sensors are not compatible it seems?
I would really appreciate if you can get back to me as soon as possible as I would like to order the kit. Important for us is that the kit is up-to-date and current so that he can grow with it and expand as he’d like. The initial cost of the kit is not a factor, it is more important that the kit is current and expandable so that he can use it for the coming years…
- What are the real differences between MegaPi and Me Auriga?
Thanks,
Andrew
