ELEGOO Mega 2560 Project The Most Complete Starter Kit w/Tutorials for Arduino

I bought the ELEGOO Mega R3 Ultimate Starter Kit to get hands-on experience with Arduino, and I’m really happy with the purchase. The kit comes with a Mega 2560 board and a huge variety of components like sensors, motors, LEDs, and more. Everything was well-organized in a plastic case, making it easy to keep things sorted. One of the best things about this kit is the tutorial. The step-by-step guides are clear and easy to follow, which is really helpful for beginners. The sample codes work well, and you can tweak them to understand how each component works. The quality of the components is good for the price. Some jumper wires were a bit flimsy, but they still did great job. The Mega 2560 board itself works just like the official Arduino board, and I had no issues connecting it to my laptop. Overall, this is a great kit for anyone who wants to learn electronics and programming with Arduino. It has everything needed to start experimenting and building projects. I would definitely recommend it to beginners and hobbyists.

This was a Very Cool, and Fun Electronics Kit that gives an Introduction to the Arduino Process Controller. Everything was Very Well Packaged, in New "Unused" Condition. All of the components come with an ID Card inside of the plastic compartmentalized carrying case. In addition to the Arduino with the Mega2560 Chip, were a host of project items such as LEDs, Resistors, Motors, Jumpers, and a Nice assortment of Sensors. From Motion, to Temperature, to Light Output. The DC Motor, Servo, and the Stepper Motor added an extra touch to the overall enjoyment. I quickly found myself updating the software code (for my own pleasure) for the Stepper Motor and Driver, and have had considerable enjoyment of there use. Elegoo has included a Great Companion CD filled with an Illustrated Guide to Experiments and Coding for the Arduino. The pictures included in the CD really help guide you through the electrical connections for the experiments, to make sure sure you get everything right. Keep in mind that this is an introductory type kit, the beginning learning of Programmable Controllers and Electronics, and how they mix and associate. I am planning on purchasing a few more of these kits for my young relatives that are exploring the world of STEM Learning through their schools. Elegoo has put together a Very Nice Kit with more than an attractive price, and Great Quality. I am really amazed at how will a number of the Amazon Vendors deliver their products for such reasonable pricing with such great delivery of packaging and goods received. The information on the Amazon Site should make it very easy to select Elegoo for as more than just a consideration for the products that they sell. In closing I would like to convey that I have not received any compensation for this review, or for any of the products that I have purchased from Elegoo which include the above mentioned kit and other electronic items. For myself this kit was a great find and great pick.

I rarely give feedback on products and even more rarely give them 5 stars. This is a comprehensive starter kit at a very competitive price. I also bought the separate 37 sensor kit. There are so many gadgets in both these kits it will take me months to get through all of them. Yes, there are some misspelled words and other minor issues, but I think the company really put their heart into assembling a great product. And they freely give their contact information out in many places and want you to contact them with issues. Some other complaints are around getting started and using the product with the instructions provided. I was able to install everything and control an LED light with sample code in 8 minutes, not kidding. But you have to realize this is not a kids toy, these are real engineering components here. Its up to you to learn, problem solve and create what you want from the components as opposed to being a step by step kit. That's the whole fun of it. Those with a technical or engineering background will be at an enormous advantage. You must learn how to program using C code and research how the components work. For example, I was unable to get the stepper motor to work from this kit with the example stepper motor code that comes with Arduino IDE. But that's because the example code is for a different stepper motor and there are many different kits out there with different types of stepper motors. I took me two hours to learn about stepper motors and was able to write my own code to control it. I'm lucky to have an engineering background with a little bit of C code experience so I could see someone taking much longer to figure out the stepper motor issue or giving up completely. If you really want to learn Arduino, you can. Be patient, buy books like Programming Arduino by Simon Monk, browse forums, watch YouTube tutorials, etc. So I'll summarize by saying that this is a great product and ships as advertised. I suspect many frustrations are because this is a fairly advanced kit and not a toy. Thank you for reading my review and good luck. UPDATE: I spent more time going through the sample code provided by Elegoo and the stepper motor code they provided works perfect. My comments above were based on my grabbing the code that comes with Arduino IDE which was incompatible. Again, I think the kit is great. Probably most negative feedback coming from misunderstanding how to use everything.

Very good for kids learning, my 8 years boy loved it.

I’d say it is great for 8-18 kids and pre-college students to learn basic micro controller programming

This was my first foray into anything Arduino and I'm more than happy that I went with Elegoo! The kit came with everything advertised, all the online documentation was fairly updated and easy to understand with some patience and I was able to go through all the examples while learning how everything works. Some of the examples could have a little more explanation for beginners but I was easily able to find YouTube videos that helped with most of my questions. Overall this kit helped me learn the basics and I've now moved on to creating my own sketches and I have designed a few cool little devices for my home. I even had an issue with the included servo not fully functioning and all I had to do was email the Elegoo service department. I told them that I had a broken piece in the kit, they asked me for a few order details and sent a brand new one no other questions asked. Nive and easy, I love it!

Muy buen producto, aparte lo protegen muy bien para entregar

Es un kit completísimo, con gran variedad de sensores, un magnifico tutorial y un estuche muy practico a un precio muy razonable y finalmente un servicio de entrega confiable y expedito.
