Hello

Last week I purchased 2 of the tilt sensors.
They were delivered yesterday, but I had not the time yet to implement one. Perhaps at the weekend.

They also send me the "quick start guide" at no cost.
I have it not here in my office at the moment but basicaly the "quick start guide" is one sheet of paper in the DIN A2 format (the size of 4 letters together) printed on one side.

It shows the RN-1 as an exploded drawing with a chart of the parts with numbers. Quite nice.

On the left side, as I remember, there is some information about doing the basic stuff like setting zero-position and loading the overall demo program.

As it shows no new information for me, I have not memorized it in deep.

I would rather expect to have this poster in the box, when I buy a new robonova.
I would not spent ~4 Euros for it.

regards Steffen

That's great, I'm ready to buy, filled out the order, but apparently they don't ship to the US :(

Anyone else in the US have any luck?

Were you trying to order directly from the Hitec website in Germany?

In addition to being able to buy from RoboSavvy - the company that provides this great website and forum, there are also several distributors in the US and Canada, and even Target is selling the Robonova on their online website - though you probably won't get much in the way of support or guidance from them. 8)

Sorry. My mistake. I see from checking your website and previous posts that you were probably trying to order options rather than a new RN. Perhaps Limor can help locate a source that will ship to the US.
