Questions

Do I need to solder?

Not necessarily. With parts only, you solder and assemble it yourself. Add assembly, firmware and testing and you receive a working device.

What’s in a kit?

The kit page lists every part with its model, quantity per kit and unit price. When every line has its per-kit quantity, you have a full kit.

I already have some parts.

Set them to 0 and buy only what’s missing. Without a full kit, services like assembly and sale prices aren’t available.

When does it ship?

The kit page shows the estimated ship date, set by the slowest service you pick.

What if it breaks?

See the Sales and Returns policy for how this is handled.

Can I buy from outside mainland China?
