BirdBrain Technologies Finch Robot 2.0

A rechargeable classroom robot for movement, sensing and drawing. It suits coding lessons; choose a compatible micro:bit, the small computer board it uses, and suitable software.

Purchase stage: Not established. The selected source documents this exact model; a current order route, stock and customer deliveries were not established by this source-change triage.

Price, software and support notes

Price: Dated public research, retained on 1 November 2026: Choose the device, language, software and compatible micro:bit before planning lessons. Charge the robot at its own charging port, not the micro:bit port. The manual recommends adult supervision for children aged 13 and under, indoor use, and keeping hands and hair away from wheels; turn it off rather than leaving it powered unattended. Its battery guidance says not to remove the battery, while a separate support article describes reseating or swapping one during troubleshooting: seek maker clarification and do not infer that self-repair is permitted. A 2025 maker catalogue lists a five-robot Starter Flock at US$849; this is a historical catalogue offer, not a current single-unit price, stock, UK delivery or landed cost as at 28 October 2026. Confirm support and warranty.

Existing dated public research text; no fresh single-unit quotation. Do not infer a price from a service fee, deposit, build cost, accessory or bundle.

Regional scope: Global reference only; intended-country orderability, final landed cost and local support are not established unless explicitly stated below.

Software: Its compatibility list spans mobile, Chromebook, Windows, Mac and Linux, but individual coding tools have different requirements.

Support: BirdBrain offers a free teacher course, student tutorials and classroom activities. Its compatibility list spans mobile, Chromebook, Windows, Mac and Linux, but individual coding tools have different requirements. Check the intended device/tool pairing, included micro:bit, charging arrangements, warranty and replacement battery route for Finch 2.0; original Finch instructions are not interchangeable.
