Important
There are three options regarding motors and electronics (as also the case with the SO100 arms), either 5V or 12V or a wired version. If this is the first time you build robots please choose the 5V version as it’s a little bit easier to assemble. If you are more experienced and want to lift heavier objects choose the 12V version. If you want the cheapest options, go for the wired LeKiwi robot (at the end of the Bill of Materials list).
These parts are the same for both 5V and 12V versions:
