It's similar to [Student Robotics's kit](https://studentrobotics.org/docs/kit/), and is supplied to teams for the Smallpeice Computing, Robotics and Electronics Summer School as well as RoboHack. The [RUB-Bots](/kit/outreach/rub-bots), Smallpeice Bot and Ram-P are all built using the Smallpeice kit. + +## Electronics Every team at Smallpeice receives an 18L RUB containing the following equipment: -- 1 x SR v4 Power Board -- 1 x SR v4 Motor Board +- 1 x Raspberry Pi 3 Model B/B+ with a [Pi Power HAT](https://github.com/sourcebots/Pi-Powerboard-hw) +- 1 x USB Memory Stick +- 1 x [Tool Kit](tools) +- 1 x [SR v4 Power Board](power-board) +- 1 x [SR v4 Motor Board](motor-board) - 1 x SR v4 Servo Board - 1 x Arduino Uno -- 2 x ????
