Re: Got my first VEX kit, question about a couple of parts.
Actually, item # 2 is most commonly used in the transmitter (it fits there nicely and uses all 8 AA batteries).

Do you have this item? If so, you can use AA batteries in it as a substitute for item #1 (the 7.2 robot battery) and won't need a charger.

If you have a very old (pre 2008) kit (Starter kit), here are some build instructions for the Squarebot. If you have a Protobot kit (2008 ->), here are build instructions for that, if you don't have them already. Also, this guide has build instructions for some simple projects that can be built with a Starter Kit.

Enjoy!
