Does the robot kit include the solar panel?
Answer: YES, the robot kit contains a solar panel that can be mounted directly on the robot to run in the sun.
How does it work?
Answer: This stem robot kit includes a solar power panel that collects solar heat energy into an electric energy drive motor, which drives the gears to make the machine run smoothly. Powered by the sun, no batteries needed.
Can the panel be charged in the sun, then used indoors? Or does it need to be in the sun the whole time to run?
Answer: Solar panels do not have the function of storing electricity, and they all need to be operated insufficient sunlight.
Does it come with a remote control?
Answer: It does not come with remote control. Walking freely in the sun.
How many pieces are there?
Answer: There are 190 pieces in the carton pack that can be assembled into 12 different robots, each of which can be shared.
What tools are needed for assembly?
Answer: A file or emery board and a sprue cutter
Are there enough parts for all of these robots to be built without disassembling some of them in order to build the others?
Answer: Only the robot’s head is shared, and the other body parts have enough parts. The head of the robot needs to be disassembled to build other robots.
My boys have played with building these for hours but the solar panel and gears are not working! So far, this has been a building toy only (like a lego set) – please advise on how to get the robot functional. That is the exciting part after so many hours of building!!! So far, just disappointing! We need advice or a new set from the manufacturer!!

Any idea on how to get replacement parts? I cannot find a website for Sillbird.
If you order it from Amazon, you might need to contact the seller / Amazon to request a replacement. We hope it helps. Thx!
