S2 Unboxing
No unboxing video. It was packaged very nice though. Although the video was circumstantial, this is one of the coolest robots I've had the pleasure of owning. Huge value starting with the fact it ships programmed with a printed manual. It is interactive through its light sensors. Lots of resources available at Parallax's website. I can't wait to show this off to my meetup! Not the video, although copters are a gateway to robots! Especially cheap copters.
S2 vs 10 copters + 1 meat servo. Only the S2 lived!

Jolly good fun, all those little copters. The wife recently surprised me with a very early birthday present, a drone with a camera. I only had a tiny Hubsan before than, so I'm having fun with this bigger copter. Fortunately the bottom-mounted camera detaches easily so I'm practicing without it. No damage yet!
Thanks, the S2 has been a real treat! The Scribbler has a lot in common with those micro-copters. Underneath both requiring complex engineering and software. On the outside they're automagic!
Thanks. The S2 was doing a burnout on the Sharpie boxes and beeping a lot.
I think it was laughing at the PC Tune UP. Or crying. I just got it so I'm not sure.
That video is AWESOME! (I hope no quads were destroyed in the making of it.)

The S2 and the original Scribblers were made in China, and so will be the upcoming S3.
