Thanks for your comment. I am currently working on a Getting Started guide and hardware kit to help people with no electronics experience get started.

There are several options for getting Stack Chan hardware. Option 1: Kits. You can get started by purchasing a third-party kit (https://mongonta.booth.pm/ ). This kit uses a breadboard and wires to assemble the dedicated circuit board instead of soldering it together. Another user illustrated instruction article (https://note.com/sylacwa/n/ne58704a19110) is also available.

Option 2: Personalized manufacturing services. JLCPCB (https://jlcpcb.com/) offers 3D printing services and board fabrication/assembly services. Data for Stack-chan boards (https://github.com/meganetaaan/stack-chan/tree/dev/v1.0/sche...) and cases (https://github.com/ meganetaaan/stack-chan/tree/dev/v1.0/case) are in a format that can be ordered directly from JLCPCB.

So option 1 allows me to have a small little robot without any soldering?

Nonetheless, awesome work!

Yes. 1 kit can be used to make this small robot if you have the following items.

・M5StackCore2 ・SG90Servo x 2pcs ・M3x18mm Screw x 2pcs ・M3x20mm Screw x 2pcs
