Not yet I'm afraid, for now the videos are the de-facto documentation for this product. I have all of the slides for the video, so it might be sometime later that I'll be able to compile everything into a printable document.

Is there anywhere on-line where I would find some reasonable parameters for the kit motors?
I got a preview of the third tutorial, and it has an excel spreadsheet with all the motor configuration parameters in it. I'm trying to get either a preview "sneak peek" of the 3rd tutorial posted or the actual excel spreadsheet to share with you guys. Check back here real soon and I'll post anything as soon as I get my hands on it.

I'm attempting to simulate a robot arm and I'm not sure on to include the dynamics for the arm into the simulation. How would I do this.
Justin Davis, another NI engineer volunteering to work on this project (all of us at NI are working on this on a volunteer basis - yay volunteers! - we all have our "real jobs" we're also doing), is creating a fairly thorough example for you showing you how to simulate dynamics like this. Expect it within a few days.
