Thank you for your question, the micro:bit board does not come as part of this kit you would need to purchase it separately on the link below.

Q:
Hi, how do you get the robot to detect crashes? Is there a tutorial that I can follow?
Asked by: Aisha
A:
Hi Aisha,

There is not an explicit tutorial as its instead something we experimented with but did not write as a full tutorial as of yet. You would use the accelerometer data that the micro:bit collects and when the value drops to zero the buggy will have collided with something so you can then code it to respond.

Best Regards

Cullen
