Parts List Details
           So that there is no question about the parts listed above, I'll explain them in further detail below. Then you'll know what each part is doing and why we need it!

Magician Chassis
           This is the robotic chassis and platform that we'll be using for building a robot. It comes with two motors, two wheels and a core chassis that any development board can mount onto.

Breadboard (Small)
           When we want to test our motors, we will need to supply them with power, we'll use a small breadboard to make that connection.

AA Batteries
           The magician chassis kit requires 4 AA batteries to provide power. This will mean 5-6v going to the motors.

Power Jack
           The connector from the magician chassis' battery pack is a standard DC power connector, we'll use this power jack to bring power to our breadboard to go to the motors.

Breadboard Wire
           Some breadboard wire will be used to connect the dc power jack to the breadboard. You can solder the wire onto the jack, or just bend it into a loop.
