This insectiform robot is a cool advanced kit which teaches the builders the basics of soldering surface mount components while building a very cool biologically inspired solar powered robot.

• New type of solar charge pump called a "Dynamic Solar Engine."  The DSE monitors ambient light level and selects a maximum and minimum charge level that best suits the available light.  This allows the robot to operate in a much wider range of lighting conditions.

• Includes "Robot Head" practice kit to get you up to speed soldering surface mount components (last picture).

• Uses modern surface mount components which allow the builder to become familiar with SMT soldering techniques.

• Includes fine-gauge surface mount solder!

• Includes two flexible solar cells!

• Includes over 40 components!

• Comes with excellent and educational illustrated building guide!

• Dragonfly is light seeking and obstacle avoiding.

• Very active behavior!
