Part of the PBTech Labour Weekend sale. This seems pretty cool for the price. I couldn't find a price history but the price from the DJI AU store is $AU899 ($NZ937).

Hmm, these seem to be not much more than a very expensive radio controlled toy. I can't see much educational value. You'd be a lot better off getting a Lego Mindstorms set.
It has programmability, in Scratch or Python, and from the reviews it looks like it's not a bad introduction to programming and robotics. Mindstorms is also excellent and a lot more flexible but I think it's discontinued, there is a new Lego thing called Spike Prime now which seems to be more aimed at schools. Anyway this is more of a cool, fast, stable platform where you can focus on the programming without having to worry about your robot falling apart. It will only ever be a robot car with a gun, but I see nothing wrong with that haha.
This product currently has a Buy Limit of 1 Unit Per Customer.
But I want 10 of them!
You can have little battles with two of them so this is actually kind of a shame. :)
Looks awesome. Too bad I dont have friends.
Anyone know much about these? Looks awesome fun. Tempted to get one for my son (but really for me) for Xmas.
