Hey guys welcome to us billet conflicts today will be singing will get Piper a computer kit sent over to us that teaches you the fundamentals of computers as well as how to build your very own thank you very good useful tools in sunset if she teach you about Raspberry and a lot of cool things as far as how the screen works and so much more now we’ll be actually looking at it in detail and actually building one ourselves so it should be a lot of fun so let’s go ahead and take a closer look At the box before we open it up alright so the box itself has a strong resemblance to Minecraft in which is actually paired off with it which will sec while we actually program the game itself on the back here you actually see kind of exactly what it comes with so Again the whole Minecraft theme with a lot of pixelation so it looks really neat so it comes with a screen Raspberry Pi battery speaker mouse wood panels which is interesting lights wires buttons switches and buzzers so everything to assemble our very own Piper so this should be a lot of fun now One thing I want to show you is look at the screen right over here and as I actually slide out the kit you’ll actually notice it’s animated so they did a really good job with that as well alright so let’s take a look at this now once we open this up you’ll notice There’s actually a top-secret message on the top so this says here that you’re about to embark in a serious mission earth is in danger it’s about to be hit by an asteroid and it’s our job to save it by creating this control station using the blueprint and then once you Actually go ahead and do all these check offs and actually build it you can see what happens after that so let’s go ahead and take a look what’s on here so as I lift this up I gotta tell you there’s a lot going on right here so They got this very nice blueprint now the blueprint itself is an explanation on how to build an actual computer so it’s actually a very nice material almost posted great I would say it’s got very sick feeling to it as well now over here we have a lot of buttons and a lot Of switches and buzzards so we’ll come and put that for right now got like a little tiny looking Mouse here so that’s really cool and then over here we have some chips as well as a speaker and over here it looks more like the motherboards that’s really Cool then we have actually looks like the power being to charge the actual laptop then we have a lot of wood pieces I mean a lot of wood pieces some glass and here is our cool looking screen so this should be a lot of fun this has a Very distinct smell of wood and I must say it’s actually really cool-looking I’m really excited to build it so let’s go ahead and take a look at the blueprint and start this thing up okay so this here is our blueprint so we’re just going to go ahead and start from Step one and I’m working on waste through the first thing that shows is that this is the mission zero blueprint to the actual computer itself and which will show us a little inventory but first we’re going to start off with the control box All right so now that we have the control box made we’ll go ahead and create the storage chests now that the storage chest is made we can go ahead and make the Raspberry Pi base alright so lastly we can go ahead and get the screen set up and get our final product Of the piper blueprint [Applause] All right so our pipers finally done and as you can tell it’s actually got a very nice finish to it it looks really professional it’s got a nice glass top with some embossed letters so I’m really excited to try this out and actually got my little niece is know with me here hi Yzma and together we’re gonna actually go ahead and try this mission out and hopefully we’ll work out you ready all right so let’s do this so when we open it up we actually can see a lot of things going on here for one we do see a Raspberry Pi which Is actually a very very strong as well as a very useful computer it’s like a mini computer in a small chip in addition we have a battery pack as well as a speaker a mouse and some buttons over here so we’ve got a nice-looking setup here so let’s go ahead and try This out so we’ll hit the power button and it should load I’m going to take my mouse out in the mean time so we can see Raspberry Pi loading up on the screen here okay so our software is now loading up and let’s go ahead and try this out We’re going to go ahead and look there’s a story mode first and try this out says we’re in Mars so we’ll go ahead and hit start I’m awake I’m Elizabeth alright so looks like it’s almost like minecraft this is a really really cool there’s three actually have to destroy these rusty Corners over here so let me go ahead and try that out there y’all that’s got very nice quick response to it which is really cool thinks that the end of the first mission well done alright yeah out of you whatever you build alright so let’s say We actually have to work on a Raspberry Pi over here and install two red wires is manji can you go ahead and give me two red wires length alright thank you so I got two red wires here and it looks like I had to add it on the fifth and The sixth tenth we’re going to one count one two three four five and then just go ahead and install that one four five and then we’ll go ahead and install this on the sixth one and we should be good now it does say we have to touch the wires Together so let’s go ahead and do that alright so now that we’re all set here it says to go look at the door and open it so I think we just go ahead and do one of these so let’s get closer to the door alright so let’s go ahead and try Setting this up where I can actually just move the character by pressing a button so from what it looks like is I just go ahead and connect these two wires right over here and then set up one of these switch buttons as well so let me just go ahead And try this out there we go so ty presses button now and he actually moves forward alright so looks like we’re going to be building our movement here so you can actually kind of see over here that they show the actual looks like the Raspberry Pi as well as the Buttons over here so really cool how they did that so right now we’re doing the red one so does show that there is a connection to it which is good so I got all three buttons working now so like we just go ahead and follow this path here All right okay sweet that’s a very high high jump let’s just jump whoa we saw that all right so if there’s a bottom look all over the pass at the end at the same place oh we got one side this tunnel here hold the four button to Climb the ladder we got to climb all the way up alright so looks like we’re going inside the spaceship now oh look spaceship just took off Great yeah all right we landed on the cheese whoo-hoo like we need to repair jumping abilities so let’s go to this box here where is it right click on that okay so we need a yellow button oh ok so the next one is going to be our yellow button so can I Get two yellow wires to it one so now we’re going to go out and repair our jump button so the way this one works is very similar we skipped two on this side here and then we just go ahead and attach that like so and then we just go Ahead and connect that to our little board over here alright so our yellow button is now officially ready and we are jumping so let’s go and look like we’re inside the cheese crater very interesting going right yeah trying to get outside here so it looks like the red blocks are leading To an exit so I got to follow the red blocks all right so we’re going to want to click on this here you need a gold wrench to operate this crafting table so let’s go ahead and find ourselves a golden light alright so we completed mission number one and looks like we’re On some kind of Highland so this here is a mission number two trying to find that golden wrench ah so looks like run I’m trying to find some treasure you’ll find something useful on the shrimp shipwreck so let’s go and look at a ship shall we Ah what’s that so is it you’d be seeking a treasure seek out the biggest tree in the forest entered the temple it smashed the crystal within ah there we go that looks like a big tree to me and this is definitely the tree so looks like it Might be this entrance right here yep that’s the entrance and there’s the crystal click add new framing yeah had smashed the crystal with a right click and to open the mountain you will hear you hear rumbling in the distance if you seek the gold enclosure exit the rough golden path and enter the Mountain so we got to find the mountain so I get the gold attack which is this and AH there is our big mountain and there is a hole there so let’s go ahead and click on this not sure what that does but sure says build a treasure detector by right-clicking on the Crystal okay so we have to build a treasure detector all right so this here is our treasure detector so we just made this for this part right here so what we’re going to anyone just leave this right here so the faster it blinks the closer we are try walking around a bit It’s definitely blinking faster mmm I think the treasure is up there so as it must be buried somewhere in the sand this is very difficult I can’t find the treasure oh it’s much a spot and that has to be it there’s a treasure dig one block below the Rotex Alright we’ve got the golden wrenched we have to figure out a way to reach the crafting table up there you can activate the pulse of TNT let’s click the TNT see what happens oh this is that they’re all exploding that’s really cool alright let’s go ahead and get that cracking table Alright so we have a little switch here alright so looks like we get to build something over here so let’s try this out so I’m actually building that right bottom here at the moment okay and then we can go ahead and connect this between these two and okay So we just do the switch and then we can go out and activate this all right well thank you an idea what Piper’s about sexy a great product and teach you about computers from the ground up in addition the whole aspect of the computer the design is actually phenomenal Now the gaming aspect actually completely different an actual blueprint of building something it actually teaches you about with computers as well so it actually tells you how to actually program a button as a lot of switches including different wires and how the whole Raspberry Pi thing works so There’s a lot of fun it’s very interesting and I think it’s actually a great tool as well as a gift for anyone to be honest and it does let you play minecraft in the end so that’s actually always a plus now if you have any questions about the piper feel free to Comment down below otherwise thank you again for watching and we’ll see you next time bye bye Video Information
