## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10263:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE10263:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Take hands-on robot control further with the ACEBOTT QD027 wireless controller handle for micro:bit. A thicker grip, curved edges, and real-time haptic feedback make coding and driving micro:bit robots feel natural and responsive. Build, code, and iterate fast with a joystick plus 4 tactile buttons, then explore wireless robot control and MakeCode fundamentals through a structured 8-lesson pathway.

*Does not include a micro:bit - we recommend the [micro:bit GO bundle](https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-bit-v2-go-kit-australia.html).*
