Great kids engineering build
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got into the VEX ecosystem a couple of years ago for my kids Christmas gift. I saw this robotic arm on sale and it was too good a deal to pas up. It is a fun build with basic engineering concepts to explain to my young kids. The first one we built was a launching toy. I am glad this one does not launch projectiles across the room. No parts to loose this time.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ever wanted or needed a third arm? This is it! My 11-year-old nephew and I had a great time assembling this robotic arm. We played, then took it all apart, downloaded the instruction for the scorpion http://link.vex.com/help/pdf/robotic-arm/scorpion an then scared his mom with it. LOL.

Great STEM gift
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very fun challenge for my 11 year old. He enjoyed learning about gear ratios and the math behind them. Only complaint is that some plastic pieces have to hold the torque and are prone to snapping.

STEM Robotic Arm
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a gift. However, it was difficult to assemble and needed a father and a mechanical engineer, who actually works with cranes, to assist to boys in the assembly of the crane. It is not robotic it is more like a coin operated crane that picks up toys at local stores or carnivals.

Fun build for my child.

Great project on a rainy day
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great gift for a child that enjoys building however, **** PURCHASERS TAKE NOTE: This particular toy needs a motor kit to operate and is sold separately. I found one at another retailer however I was pretty bummed about the description not mentioning this and having to go out of my way to locate and purchase one.
