Reversity - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot with two motors facing reverse directions
This robot looks a bit weird. Can you guess why? The motors are placed in opposite directions. One of the motors is facing "forward" while the other one is facing "backward." This means that if you tell both motors to rotate forward, the robot will just spin! To make the robot move forward, you will need to make one motor rotate forward and the other backward.
The goal of this robot is to teach students that motors can be placed in various ways. It is not always the case that both motors face the same direction, and this needs to be accounted for during programming.
