XiaoR GeekAI Racing Robot Powered by Jetson Nano Donkey Car with Deep Learning Slef Driving and Vision Line Following (with Jetson Nano+Assembled)

The seller was polite and provided extra parts when many of the parts it came with were damaged or broken.However, this entire project was a huge mistake and a massive waste of money. This is NOT the regular donkey car, and while sort of using the code that Donkey car normally comes with... it's not quite the right thing. You will spend $210 + the cost of a Raspberry Pi for an expensive and scrappy RC car that you cannot really program on like a normal Donkey Car. The servo board it comes with is useless and cannot be manually modified to work with the original code and the DC motors are not compatible with the regular donkey car with the PCA9685 servo board (or other boards) that this does not come with. There may be some complicated way to connect it to the PCA9685 board that I'm trying to figure out, but so far with no luck. The battery also needs to be swapped since this comes with a battery that connects to the servo board and not the Pi, and I already explained how the servo board is trash. Basically, go with the original donkey car setup, don't make the mistake of getting this, and then leaving even your expert buddy who works at AMD and Qualcomm scratching their head wondering why the I2C connection doesn't even interface properly.If you just want an RC car... well... why would you buy this anyways, it's almost $300 when you include the Pi, and is objectively worse (the whole point of donkey car is to be for learning how to mess with machine learning and autonomous driving). Will update if I can figure out how to get this thing to work, but so far even my electrical engineering buddy from AMD is scratching his head when we try to modify this thing to work with normal Donkey Car code and hardware, all because I'm trying to avoid throwing this out and having to start all over with the original donkey car and putting the small fortune invested in this car to waste.

All instructions and videos were for the Raspberry Pi version, leaving you guessing how to properly interface the nano to the driver/voltage controller/charger board. Does not include the nano. All videos were in Chinese and left something to be desired as regards assembly. Lacks a proper mounting plate for the nano.However a good kit, mechanically speaking with some extra parts and screws. I had to design and 3d print an adapter mounting board for the nano. Will probably have to get an additional nano because I think I destroyed the one I got for this project. And this kit is cheaper than some.

Well designed vehicle. We had to modify it to add component which was easy to do with a stackable case. Used for a project. Would love if there was a way to add a body on top so it looks like a real car.Did not use the provided code base and wrote our own as we need to customize it.

Great product I reccomend for school project

This is a scam. do a google search on donkey car and you will find the right product.
