Designed for Hummingbird Premium Kit (not included)
Enable coding with reusable components
Build projects using free programming tools
Complete each project over five class sessions
The BirdBrain Hummingbird Project Pack (Animatronics, Rover, Catapult) serves as an ideal introduction to the world of robotics and coding, offering a comprehensive learning experience through three distinct kits. These kits are designed to facilitate quick builds and provide student-friendly tutorials, making them suitable for both beginners and educators. The included curriculum allows teachers to prepare for teaching coding and robotics within a short time frame, fostering an environment where young innovators can unleash their creativity and develop new inventions.
The Project Pack includes reusable components to construct three unique projects, each to be tackled one at a time. The Catapult Pack enables users to design, code, and launch balls using a catapult, integrating servos and sensors to delve into mathematical and physical concepts. The Rover Pack allows for the construction and coding of a robotic car, utilizing motors, wheels, servos, and sensors for distance and line tracking. The Animatronic Pack offers the opportunity to create an interactive character or robotic head with a pan-tilt design, employing servos and sensors for light, sound, and distance detection.
Each project is designed to be completed over five class sessions, after which it can be disassembled to begin the next project, thereby enhancing skills and confidence progressively. The Hummingbird Bit Robotics projects are compatible with various free programming environments, including BirdBlox, MakeCode, Snap!, Python, and Java, accommodating a wide range of devices and operating systems.
Note: The Hummingbird Premium Kit is required and sold separately.

Return Conditions
To qualify for a refund under the 30-day return policy, all of the following conditions must be met:
A valid Return Authorization (RA) number must be obtained prior to returning the product. Returns without an RA number will be refused.
The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
The RA number must be included with the return.
Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
A €100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
Consumables * — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tires, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odor-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly * — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
Digital Goods, Software, and Apps * — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
Clearance Items * — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
On-Demand Items * — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfill a customer request.
* European consumers retain their statutory Right of Withdrawal on these items. Its exercise is subject to the conditions and exclusions set out in the Statutory Right of Withdrawal, and any reimbursement may be reduced to reflect a loss in value resulting from handling beyond inspection.
How to Request a Return Authorization (RA)
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
