Projects built with this kit

Make a tilt direction to know which direction you are tilting the micro:bit.	Use the radio on micro:bit make a telegraph, then send messages to your friends.

Imagine a situation, your classmate falls asleep in the class, he won’t wake up only if you shake him and call his name.	Build a circuit to detect the magnet, the LED will blink when it approaches to a magnetic field.

• These projects shown above are just a few of our tutorials, if you have successfully completed all the projects, try to finish our missions.
  The 9G servo needs a large current to drive, so please use the battery case to power the micro: bit when you make projects with a 9G servo.
