Q2: Unable to connect to the robot kit via Bluetooth? A2: (1) You need to connect to the Bluetooth module through our app. You can download the "ElegooKit" app from the App Store or Google Play. Please allow the "Allow ElegooKit to access this device's location" permission first. Please turn on GPS and network signals when connecting to the Bluetooth module. If it still doesn't work, please click on the upper left corner to open the Bluetooth device list and manually connect the BT-16 device. (2) If you can connect to the Bluetooth module, it may be that your phone is incompatible with the Bluetooth module. Please try again with another phone. Q3: Some of the servo motors do not work? A3: (1) Please connect the non-working servo to another servo port, and connect the working servo to the non-working port. So we can check if there is a problem with the servo port on the mainboard. (2) Please turn off the power and try to turn the servo manually. If you can't turn it, maybe the gear inside the servo is stuck. Please let us know and we will send you a replacement servo. Q4: What should I do if the penguin robot toys fall down while dancing? A4: This may be caused by one of the bottom legs not being flat on the ground. When the legs rotate, a large rotation angle may cause the robot's center of gravity to shift to one side and fall. Please use the ElegooKit app to adjust the angle of the servo when it is stationary. Review: Great Value for money, nice kit :) - No complaints here, for the money it's a great kit, with good assembly instructions, that’s very easy to assemble. It comes pre-progammed straight out of the box with a very good Arduino Sketch that shows off its capabilities extremely well, great fun for kids and adults new to Arduino. It can be controlled on your phone via an Elegoo bluetooth app (which can be downloaded from either the Google or Apple app store). The Elegoo app allows you to access to several pre-programmed Arduino routines: 'Direction Control Mode' - Control the bot's basic functions via 5 button pad on via phone screen, such as moving foward, backwards, left and right. 'Music Mode' - Allows you to play several music samples pre-supplied on the SD card that comes with the kit (several sightly annoying short tracks, which you can thankfully change). 'Dance Mode' - The Penguin Bot performs a short fun dance routine to music, it has 3 dance moves / routines provided by default. 'Auto Follow Mode' - Place your hand or an object in front of the Bot and it will turn and follow it, if it doesn't detect and object within 20cm it'll stop moving. 'Obstacle Avoidance Mode' - Penguin Bot will walk forwards automatically until it encounters an obstacle within 20cm, at which point it will turn and choose an alternative path until it encounters another obstacle and so on. For those looking to be a little more adventrous, you can download all of the Penguin Bot’s Arduino files from Elegoo’s website. These include the main default Arduino sketch the Bot comes pre-loaded with (allowing for bluetooth control via the phones app etc). Along with several example files outlining its individual basic functions, such as movement, obstacle avoidance, play music and auto follow. My only minor gripe lies with the Arduino code itself, it's poorly documented in my opinion. The main Arduino sketch and indeed all of example Arduino sketches, are completely devoid of any form of helpful line comments you usually expect to find in well written code. This makes it unnecessarily difficult for a novice wishing to experiment or tinker with the Bot's existing code, to figure out exactly how the code works. Great kit and extremely good value for money ! Review: Good small Project - Nice little project. Elegoo claim that the age group for this kit is 6 - 12 years. A bright 12 year old may be able to do this; but unless you have a child with a very high I.Q. I doubt it. Be warned; the nuts and bolts supplied are easily lost, so take care. Having said that, there are a couple of spares included. The phone app used to control this robot, is not the same as in the manual. The new (upgraded?) app is still very hit and miss, but it just about does the job. I would have given 5 stars if the app worked well. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 8 years.

A bright 12 year old may be able to do this; but unless you have a child with a very high I.Q. I doubt it. Be warned; the nuts and bolts supplied are easily lost, so take care.

The new (upgraded?) app is still very hit and miss, but it just about does the job. I would have given 5 stars if the app worked well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing *by J***P on 30 March 2022* A bipedal robot that actually walks for this price point is just incredible. The fact its so cute and fun to play with too is a bonus. I would say for a child or a beginner this could be a little difficult to put together... That's no fault of the instructions, simply that because of what it is and its size it is a little fiddly to put together. However, that being said, ever part of it does go together well and I have to give applause to the clever physical design of it. Note that in some pictures you'll see it with a remote control. This is the V1 robot. The V2 which is what you will receive has Bluetooth and can be controlled in a similar fashion to the remote using an IOS or Android phone or tablet. Note that the V2 robot also includes some solid improvements in the design and how it goes together. ## Frequently Bought Together - ELEGOO Toy Robot Penguin Bot Biped Kit Compatible with Arduino Project, Intelligent Robot Toys for Kids Boys & Girls 6+, Dancing and Auto Follow, IR Remote Control(Black) - ELEGOO UNO R3 Project Super Starter Kit Compatible with Arduino IDE with Tutorial for Beginner --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/82705167-elegoo-toy-robot-kit-penguin-bot-robotics-compatible-with-arduino](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/82705167-elegoo-toy-robot-kit-penguin-bot-robotics-compatible-with-arduino) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-14*
