Great skill to be able to repair your household electronics when they break. He got the hang of it pretty quickly. Instructions were easy to follow. However I did find a few locations on the PCB when the trace and through hole pad just seemed to melt away. Seriously we kept the soldering iron temp only high enough to melt the solder but not nearly at max temp. And some of the spots just burned away within 3-4 seconds. I had to make jumpers in a few spots to continue the circuit. Guess it was a learning experience for him as well. Sometimes your repair isn’t straightforward and you need to be able to trace a PCB to see where the component leads so you can complete the repair. Anyway we ended up with a working radio as expected. He learned how to solder, as well as got some real world experience in dealing with cheaper components. That’s not a dig at the company- these are made to be learning kits and need to be cheap, so I don’t hold it against them. And he only got burned once lol. Anyone who uses a soldering iron regularly, knows you’re going to get burned, hopefully he learned not to do what he did again. So if you have zero experience this kit may not be easy for you. I had to supply my own flux to get the included solder to flow properly. Since they provided none I tried to solder without it at first and I couldn’t get simple components to bond, so used my own flux and everything worked fine. Again if you lack experience regarding soldering this may not be something you’d know or have. So yes it’s good for learning on mainly because it’s so cheap. But if you have zero experience and no one around who does it might take quite a bit to get the hang of it and finish the kit properly.

      Great layout of components and instructions.

      I like the way the components were laid out for you.

There's really no step by step instruction, I found by just going down the component sheet top to bottom I was able to get everything on no problem, (though i was quickly reminded how rusty I was at soldering). It worked on the first try as expected.

      Good hobby kit

      It’s a robust and good project kit to keep my 8 year old from the tablets and phones.
