I still use Nanos the most but this kit for the price gives you an R3 and a ton of extra stuff. I've purchased a couple of the 37 in 1 Sensor kits when they were on sale. Elegoo does make the best sensor kits. The parts may come from everywhere but the Elegoo parts always work. I'm really glad to see you resurrecting the Arduino there are just so many things you can use them for. Thanks for a great video!
Thanks so much for this video. I received my Starter Kit from Amazon today and really enjoyed your overview of the product. Also, the quality of your video is excellent and much appreciated. When you didn't know what a particular part was you stopped the video, found out and restarted. I am sure you spent a lot of time editing it as well. There is no annoying music to be heard (thank you) and your presentation is very understandable and professional. I look through a lot of DIY and how to videos on youtube and unfortunately there is a lot of poor quality stuff out there. I just wanted to congratulate you and I have signed up as a subscriber!
I got this kit about a year ago and ive had fun with it. not so much for real world applications but more for theory and practice. the ultrasonic sensor worked quite well, never really figured what i would do with the joystick, maybe one day i will but overall im very satisfied with the kit and what it let me explore and learn. i would recommend this to anyone who is curious and wants to get into arduino kits. gonna check out more of your videos, i like how they are laid out and very easy to understand.
This Eleggo thing is what drew me into the whole electronics thing a year ago. This kit was the best purchase I ever made on Amazon. It only led me to more and more interesting electronics and cs skills that I still enjoy to this very day.
I have never heard of Arduino in my life until a few minutes ago. I have a very basic electronic knowledge. I can connect light bulb to battery. I was watching a tutorial of basic circuits and the breadboard(didn’t know it’s name then) interested me. Thought I would buy myself one to play with. Got on Amazon and found some Elegoo kits and landed on your video to understand a little bit about those kits. When you said you made videos on this and that, you kind of convinced me to go for it. 😬. I just bought the same kit. Thanks for this amazing video. I have subscribed. I look forward to learning a lot from you. I’m excited!
That's real cool. I got the basic starter kit (not the complete one - includes most of the stuff in there). Now I have somewhat of an idea of what each thing does. I'm probably going to start working on my next project.
I got one in April 2019 for €46,99. Quite happy with it. What speaks in favour of Elegoo is that they update their product. In your box the CD is labeled V1.0.2017.10.3, mine is V1.0.2018.09. Lot of hardware makers abandon their software, but it looks like Elegoo is putting in some more effort and ships with updated CD. Kudos!
Nicely done elegoo and Paul! This is a very sweet kit I have one. If you're thinking about getting started with Arduino this is definitely the good to buy... Nicely done Paul. Joel
I was missing those Archer 150-projects-in-one electronics kits from the '70's until I found this Arduino kit. Not the same but still good fun. Thanks!
The uno kit is a awesome kit to learn from . I started out very green between Pauls shows and the 5 different kits i got i have learned a lot programming was a little tough so hang in there i slowly picked it up its been about 10 months and now im building all kind of cool stuff its a great hobby to have and dose not cost that much .
Thank you! Very nice video. One can hear your genuine interest in electronics straight away. I am sure you figured it out afterwards but those aren't standoffs by the way. They are rather "knobs" to regulate the trimmers (potentiometers).
I got a raspberry pi 4 a couple of days ago and was looking on Amazon and this popped up for ~$25. I bought it out of curiosity. Looks like a popular choice so far.
I highly recommend Elegoo kits for learning. I purchased a couple (this one) and another sensor kit. I was very satisfied. The number of projects you can do with these kits is...A LOT :)
The "Stand offs" are actually knobs for the pots in the adjacent compartment 😉. Great video by the way. Bought my nine year old nephew the smaller kit for Christmas and he thinks it is the shit.
I just got the Rex Qualis The Most Complete Kit - UNO R3 Project kit, which looks identical to your kit. I'm looking forward to getting started in electronics.
Very informative video I don’t know where your microphone was but it picked up a lot of clicking banging shuffling and crackling as you work your way through the starter Pack box. That got in the way of hearing you. All else was good - clear teaching. Thanks
Excellent description . starting today I'm subscribed in to you channel. I hope i will learn a lot from you. I have 0 knowledge in electronics. But I'm in a process of build my own Boeing 767 Flight simulator cock pit, So i think this is a good starting point. to create all my switches and rotary encoders. So i will be knocking you door for tips to my project.
That's the type of kit I should have got.. completely new to this stuff. (But I guess it would help if I got a computer first😞) I was wondering what the stepper motor module was for.. thanks Paul
Bought this kit a while back and now that I have down time, I will start to learn Uno, I hope. My only concern right now is where the heck do I find a cd/dvd player. They might as well have sent a tape cassette. :) Thank you for an excellent video. Very informative and concise.
I bought some kits but of certain ICs and components not the sensors. I find what works for me is buying sensors as I need them. Often I buy them after watching some youtube videos. But good to see what is available in those kits.
Awesome! I'm still searching for the right starter kit that could make me experiment with audio, music, generative or auto generative sounds! And relate them maybe to images too.. Any clue?
Thank you for doing this. No, I have a better idea as to just what I have been staring at in this box. What was that closing music? It sounds familiar but I am coming up empty.
Thanks for the video. I found the info helpful and will probably buy one. One recommendation: cardio. It sounded like you're out of breath during in the chair. I found myself breathing deeply just as a result of listening to you. Just some basic waking around the block would do wonders for your videos and your health. Thanks for the video!
The Elegoo Sooper Dooper kit is a gateway drug. Hanging out with Paul on TH-cam will soon have you buying more resistors and even capacitor assortments. I may need the 12 step program because I have already gotten into extra sensors and shields. If I buy a power supply or oscillator I will seek treatment.
Does the disc have a manual to walk me through projects for all those parts? Looks like fun! I need hobby things to keep my mind off the insanity in the world now. Thanks!
Nice vid. Does this board work with the Arduino websites online editor or does it only function using the standalone editor that comes in the kit? Thanks. I'm a noob and lean toward the online arduino support network. thanks PS having said all that, this Elegoo kit really looks far superior to the kit Arduino sells on their site.
Do you recommend any books to get a good grasp on fundamentals of electronics? All of this is very new to me and I’m interested, seems a bit overwhelming where to even begin when I comes to this kind of stuff though.
When it comes to board manufacturers and trying to be budgey conscious, does the manufacturer of the "same board" actually matter? A number of companies, such as Elegoo who makes 3D printers, sell the same board under their product name. Would their boards be printer proprietary and not fit for general use? Do other companies put proprietary, irremovable firmware on their boards? I have searched Amazon and found several of the same board by part number, so I am really confused.
You mentioned around 7:20 that "you can put up to about 17v" into the arduino power supply. Does this mean that arduino uno R3 is able to be powered directly by car battery, if one wanted to implement this in their car?
i can picture myself staring blank when this item will arrive to my place....anyways, I'm still learning and only by doing it actual i might not forget what I'm doing rather than always focusing on theories.
Hi Paul! First, thank you very much for this review, and for the time invested in it. I'll be happy to ask- 1. For some reason amazon won't deliver the uno kit to my country, but it will deliver the one with the mega board. From what I understood the mega does offer more (although I'm an absolute beginner), but I wanted to ask if there might give me a hard time applying instructions given for an uno board to a mega (referring also to tutorials on the internet I'll hopefully use when time comes). Should that be a problem? I mean- does the mega just have more pins, better performance etc, or are the pins, for example, tagged in a different way which will make things frustrating? 2. From a few internet sites I saw, the book that comes with the official kit is clearer than others. just to make sure- there shouldn't be a problem using the official book with this kit, right? (Going back to the previous question- the official book refers to an uno board..). Thank you very much!
I bought one last night now I'm here on YT trying to figure out what I bought. LOL. Great tutorial!
Lol .... I might be in your situation in a few weeks
Time Capsule 7 I’m about to do the same haha
TiddlyJack I’ll have a look thanks mate
😂 Same here. I knew what I wanted it for. Just not how to make it do it
Same here
I bought one of these kits for my son and we were kinda overwhelmed by all the parts inside, your video was super helpful, thanks.

What kind of programming?
Excellent overview. Very glad I discovered this. Thanks!
Thank you for making this video, now I'm interested in learning how Arduino works. I'll use your link to buy this kit hopefully next week.
Thanks for all the Info. I'm ordering a Kit for my ROV Project needs.

I'll surely have fun with these when I get one🙌😎....great content too ✌
I highly recommend Elegoo kits for learning. I purchased a couple (this one) and another sensor kit. I was very satisfied. The number of projects you can do with these kits is...A LOT :)
What language do you need to learn to program Elegoo Uno R3? Or Elegoo uses arduino programming language?
Nice video! I really want to start experimenting with an Arduino now xD
Awesome video. I watched a couple of others and this one is my favorite. You are very knowledgeable. Thank you very much
Great video, and very nice kit. Lots of components not found in other starter kits. Better than the one I bought, for about same amount of money
Thanks
The "Stand offs" are actually knobs for the pots in the adjacent compartment 😉. Great video by the way. Bought my nine year old nephew the smaller kit for Christmas and he thinks it is the shit.
The kit that made me insane for electronics!😁👍cool vid.
What a great resource you are for electronic knowledge. Thanks
I just got the Rex Qualis The Most Complete Kit - UNO R3 Project kit, which looks identical to your kit. I'm looking forward to getting started in electronics.
I really like the chart with the names I don't want to be like "that motor thingy" 😂 also like the way he explains things 👍
Awesome kit. I’m trying to make vector control for my rocket and that kit has some good sensors for just a thing lol.
Nice video man! Keep it up!!!
Excellent looks like you get alot with elegoo I want one
great video I am new to Arduino and this video really helped me sort out what to buy and what not to buy
Glad to help
Thanks for all the info! You seem very knowlegable and nice! Earned a subscriber! Hope all is well
I’m twelve and hopefully this helps me with what I want to do. It seems cool
It is very useful to know this stuff! Stay creative!
Go for it man! Don't give up. Things get harder to learn as you get older.
Nice, I have a nodemcu with a basic kit, something like this would expand it nicely.
Yes it would.
19:03 I can't be sure, but I think those plastic pieces that you call stand-offs, are actually knobs to turn the potentiometers.
Very nice review! Ordering now.
Great entry into electronics kit..
Wow, what a great presentation. thanks buddy.
Very informative video

I didn't buy the complete edition but the one that's a little bit smaller, not the basic but the normal beginner set and I'm looking forward to it
Great video, thanks :)
Just bought it. Thanks
I like arduino. I always go to Elegoo first. I bought their Mega Arduino kit, plus their robotic car kit.
They have nice stuff
Thanks this was super helpful
Very new to arduino thank you for sharing again and will look into purchasing it Thanks again 😊

hey how is it? i’m thinking about buying one to create some projects.
with this kit, can you use the same software an original Arduino uses or is their specific software from elegoo?
Standard Arduino IDE
Where did you get that pencil

learnelectronics I just ordered the book you recommended! :) thanks man
*Thats alot of cool looking legos.*
Really? 😩😳
That kit looks so much better than the official Arduino Uno kit from arduino.cc -it is cheaper too.
I got the Elegoo Neptune 3 3D printer and will get this starter kit...
Is the kit really worth it? it seems buying each component separately might be cheaper, also you can choose what you like. Just wondering.
Up to you
When it comes to board manufacturers and trying to be budgey conscious, does the manufacturer of the "same board" actually matter? A number of companies, such as Elegoo who makes 3D printers, sell the same board under their product name. Would their boards be printer proprietary and not fit for general use?
Do other companies put proprietary, irremovable firmware on their boards? I have searched Amazon and found several of the same board by part number, so I am really confused.
No ESD strap?
I’m new to arduino and I’m sort of confused, so is elegoo a knock off of arduino or is it a joint company or something?
It's a knock off cuz adruino is open source but quality is good
Awesome video bro you got a sub and a like from me
You mentioned around 7:20 that "you can put up to about 17v" into the arduino power supply. Does this mean that arduino uno R3 is able to be powered directly by car battery, if one wanted to implement this in their car?
no, the arduino and the others are 5 volts.
Yes, the UNO board operates at 5v and input can be between 7-12v and the on-board voltage regulator will reduce it to 5v.
i can picture myself staring blank when this item will arrive to my place....anyways, I'm still learning and only by doing it actual i might not forget what I'm doing rather than always focusing on theories.
Hi Paul!
First, thank you very much for this review, and for the time invested in it.
I'll be happy to ask-
1. For some reason amazon won't deliver the uno kit to my country, but it will deliver the one with the mega board. From what I understood the mega does offer more (although I'm an absolute beginner), but I wanted to ask if there might give me a hard time applying instructions given for an uno board to a mega (referring also to tutorials on the internet I'll hopefully use when time comes). Should that be a problem? I mean- does the mega just have more pins, better performance etc, or are the pins, for example, tagged in a different way which will make things frustrating?
2. From a few internet sites I saw, the book that comes with the official kit is clearer than others. just to make sure- there shouldn't be a problem using the official book with this kit, right? (Going back to the previous question- the official book refers to an uno board..).
Thank you very much!
You will be ok with the Mega. Just more pins.
Please answer my question how can you program the elego board from you phone
I don't know
