Hello,
yesterday I got it - my shipment with the long and eagerly expected box, containing RobonovaI. What a big surprise - up to this moment I thought I had to hack endless code into the CPU to get it up and running. No ! There were so many preloaded moves etc. in the memory, just waiting for a click of the remote control ! Although I had studied internet sources for hours, I was not aware, that this guy comes "in supension" just waiting for the wakeup call. After charging the batteries I played quite a time (told my wife, that this is a new lifeform...she was stunned about the moves Robonova could do).
Therefore my hint for marketing (if any of those experts reads this post). Make possible customers aware, that the robot can be used "out of the box" with that many moves. So for the newbee user there is fun from the beginning and no frustration with long codes.
I got my robot from Hitec Germany, it might be, that they load the Robonova locally with code before it is shipped, I don´t know? Can anybody from a different country reply, whether program code is preloaded in his country as well ? Regards

Hello Zeronar,
Thanks for the tip.
We sell the same Robonova-1 boxes shipped from the distributor Hitec/Multiplex in Germany. And yes, your description of the robot being in suspended animation waiting to be woken up is a very good one.
Congratulations for your new robot and please feel free to uploadany RN1 pictures and programs to the forum.
