Not bad, feels a bit underwhelming

It goes together well, metal and motors are good. The wheel and coupler mechanical system is weak though. They are designed to take hits, but are made of a soft foam. Also slides along the front lower face, no bearing or even plastic to minimize friction. Overall a low level design. I upgraded the wheels and threw on some UHMW, now its alright.

Great bot especially for someone just starting out in the hobby

Love the bot! I had no problem whatsoever (other than handling small parts) assembling it. Currently, I'm having to research how to get my controller to navigate the bot the way I want it to (right now it's not very intuitive), but it's fabulous.
