Building Instructions -

• Vehicle

Take a motorcycle and start removing parts. You get a chopper. Like this one. It is built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It has one large and one medium motor. It could kind of turn, but moving forward with it is very funny. There is a "more sports like version" available at Ninja - Sports Motorcycle built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3

Currently, the motorcycle has no sensors. It's more of an exercise in construction, but if you attach sensors and think of a way to attach them send us a picture. 

Join the course A robot a "day" keeps the questions awake where we will further discuss the motorcycles, how to build them and what tasks to accomplish with them. 

You can find some demo programs here.

The building instructions are for a robot that kind of looks like the Spy Bot but it has treads instead of wheels. Like a Tank. Tank Spy Bot. Treads are always funny and you could use the robot chassis base to extend with additional attachments and tools. 

Building instructions for a LEGO EV3 steering car. We use two large motors, so that the rear wheels will be driven independently by a separate motor. For your convinience, you can use the EV3-G MyBlock for moving the Boomer.

Building instructions for a simple car using an EV3 Large motor for turning the front wheels and EV3 medium motor with differential for driving the rear wheels.

Building instructions for a steering car. The front wheels steer through a Medium LEGO EV3 motor while the rear wheels are both driven by a single Large LEGO EV3 motor.

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot that we call Space Explorer. The motors are attached in a very interesting way to the brick. Both the brick and the motors are vertical and there are not many robots like this. With its ultrasonic sensor, this robot allows you to follow, find or avoid objects. Just like an explorer. And since it is a robot why not put it in space and call it "Space Explorer".

There is one part that is not from the EV3 sets, but you can actually skip it. You don't need it. Try to find which one.

Not all LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot should be aligned horizontally or vertically. It is quite possible to have the brick and the motors attached in such a way that the robot is at a certain angle. 

This is a very useful small construction that could be used as a base and extended with hands and heads or other interesting ....robot body parts.

Let's build a robot with treads. These building instructions are for a Guard Tank Robot. The good thing about tanks is that they could tackle a lot of obstacles on their way. At least this is what people are saying. Try it. Could you move over LEGO parts with this tank if they are one brick tall, or two bricks tall? What would be the largest obstacle that you could find, over which this tank could still move? Share a video or picture below in the comments section.

We would admit that this tank lacks a gun or an arm, but it is up to you to build one.

LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot designed for a Folk Race competition. This robot has three Ultrasonic Sensors. Follow the building instructions and at the end, you would have a very basic robot with tank treads that you could directly use. 

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms Robot that cleans the landing site when landing on a different planet. Built from an EV3 set it is a perfect simple tank robot with continuous tracks for lifting and moving things. Basically cleaning.   

This is a simple robot, variation of the Earl bot using treads. You can use the attachment to kick balls sideways. The robot is useful in STEM classes where students have to construct robots quickly.

The first thing every student wants to build is a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot with treads. Well, we have one. Take a look. It's really funny.

Can you make it move? Send us a video or picture in the comment section below.   

Instructions for building a steering chassis from LEGO EV3 Mindstorms. It uses EV3 Large motor to power the rear wheels and EV3 Medium motor for the steering mechanism. Find building instructions for the remote control here.

Building instructions for Module 1 of the Modular EV3 LEGO Mindstorms vehicle - the Trunk.

The goal of this robot is to teach students how to build modular robots. This first part is just one of the modules. 

Building instructions for the second module of the Ugbroid robot - the Base.

Building instructions for module 3 of the Ugbroid - the drive mechanism.

Instructions for building module 4 version 1 of the Ugbroid - rear wheels.

Building instructions for building rear wheels - module 4 version 2 of the Ugbroid.

This is a simple LEGO EV3 Mindstorms Robot that can collect items within itself.
