The Mechanics
The aluminum robotic arm is made from Servo Erector Set components for the ultimate in flexibility and expandability. The kit consists of black anodized aluminum brackets, Aluminum tubing and hubs, custom injection molded components, and precision laser-cut Lexan components. The arm uses 1 x HS-475HB in the base, 1 x HS-805BB in the shoulder, 1 x HS-755HB in the elbow, 1 x HS-645MG in the wrist, and 1 x HS-422 in the gripper.

Example code
Assembling arm was quite difficult but it works greatly.
It is my first arm robot. At first I was very worried whether it would work properly, but I was very happy to see that it was working properly after assembly. And the motor was so powerful and easy to command that I could easily implement the behavior I wanted.
What a great package. Complete with everything you need... the arm, power supply, switches, and the botboarduino that you can program. For remote control, add the 1Sheeld. For the code, search Instructables.
Shipping was very fast. I very much enjoyed the project. I purchased the arm with the botboarduino chip. I was able to eventually find starter code to work with on the internet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All the sample codes can be found on the GitHub here: https://github.com/Lynxmotion/Arms/tree/Botboarduino
