The Hummingbird Bit Premium Kit gives students everything in the Base Kit and more — extra motors, sensors and building parts to design bigger, more capable robots. Combine the electronics with everyday craft materials and code your creation to move, sense and respond using the BBC micro:bit.
What's included (parts for one robot):
- 1 × Bit Controller (the robot's brain), 1 × terminal tool and 1 × 4×AA battery holder
- 1 × green, 1 × red and 1 × yellow single-colour LED, plus 2 × tri-colour LEDs
- 2 × position servos and 2 × rotation servos, with 2 × servo wheels and 2 × plastic block (brick) adapters
- 4 × servo extension cables
- 1 × light sensor, 1 × dial sensor, 1 × distance sensor and 1 × sound sensor
- User manual and a sturdy storage case
What students practise:
- Designing and building more advanced robots and moving models
- Coding in block-based or text-based languages, including MakeCode, Python and Java
- Using distance and sound sensors so robots respond to their surroundings
- Adding wheels and brick adapters to build driving and mechanical projects
Electrically protected connectors let students add parts freely without damaging them. Free, classroom-tested lesson plans and coding tutorials are included. A BBC micro:bit is required as the controller's brain — choose the option with a micro:bit and USB cable at checkout, or supply your own. AA batteries not included (4 needed).
