Questions

Do I need to solder?

Not necessarily. With parts only, you solder and assemble it yourself. Add assembly, firmware and testing and you receive a working device.

What’s in a kit?

The kit page lists every part with its model, quantity per set and unit price. When every line has its per-set quantity, you have a complete set.

I already have some parts.

Set them to 0 and buy only what’s missing. Without a complete set, services like assembly and sale prices aren’t available.

When does it ship?

The kit page shows the estimated ship date for the services you pick, based on the slowest one.

What if it breaks?

See the Sales and Returns policy for how this is handled.
