Using the Lynxmotion Johnny 5 Robot Kit is a breeze. First, follow the assembly guides carefully to put all the parts together. Once assembled, connect it to your PC using the DB9 cable or set up the wireless modules for wireless control. You can use the Lynxmotion Sequencer Program on your PC to make the robot move. When using the robot, make sure it's on a suitable surface as it can work on many but might not perform well on extremely uneven or slippery ones. As for maintenance, keep it clean from dust and debris. Check the servos and motors regularly for any signs of wear. Remember, the batteries and 'eyes' are not included, so you'll need to get those separately. And since it's a special order, be patient as it will take 10 - 20 days to be delivered.
