## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=EF08289-2:1` (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/EF08289-2:1.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

Get hands-on with legged robotics, AI and control theory using a compact, metal-bodied quadruped you can code in minutes. ELECFREAKS XGO Robot Kit V2 for micro:bit blends a 15 DOF walking platform with a clamp-style robotic arm for practical pick, carry and interaction projects. Pair it with a micro:bit board for MakeCode or Python programming, use the self-developed mobile app for direct driving, and explore expansion via the XGO adapter and building-block mounting points. Note: micro:bit is required and sold separately.
