Robotics Connection - Featured Book

This book has a lot of information that works hand-in-hand with our Stinger CE Robot Kit. The president of the company, Jason Summerour, wrote a chapter in the book which features Robotics Connection robots.

The Ebox 4300 robot controller is a component that is also featured in this book and comes with the Stinger CE Robot kit.

It is great reading material for developing new functions for your Stinger CE Robot Kit.
