Building Instructions

These are building instructions for a Launcher Gate. The gate is used in connection with the LEGO WeDo 2.0 lauchner that lauches objects. 

The Laboratory is a robot that tests your programming skills. You will have to measure the volume of a balloon, only by the values you receive from the sensors. 

It has a valve, that allows you to deflate your balloon at different rates.

How to place the balloon in the robot is explained in this tutorial.

This are building instructions for a second mechanism for collecting cubes. This mechanism is designed for VEX Robot Base 1 and can be used for solving VEX IQ Challenge Highrise 2014-2015.

Building instructions for the catapult that could be placed over the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Brick. The idea of the catapult it to throw objects. The fact that it is over the brick makes it very convenient to place the motors below the brick and to use the Catapult. 

This robot construction itself was used in the FIRST LEGO League Senior Solutions competition

This is a heavy lifting attachment and it can lift mission models vertically. It is build entirely from LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 parts. This is one of the more complex and interesting attachments that we demonstrate in the course and it show how a few gear wheels and levers could be used to change the motion from circular to linear. This is powerful concept that could be very valuable during FIRST LEGO League competitions.

This is a cool scissor mechanism that looks like the sting of a scorpion. It is powered by a medium motor and at the top there is a touch sensor, to detect if something has been stung! The sting is used in Scorpion - LEGO EV3 Robot.

These are instructions on how to build the:

• Bridge Ramp

for the FIRST LEGO League 2019-2020 City Shaper Challenge.

You can find more building instructions and tips and tricks about the competition on this page.

This is a simple chassis that uses two motors to control the robot and two omni wheels at the back for greater maneuverability. It also have low center of the mass which makes it more stable for higher attachments.

The program for this robot is at programs/uxgw6b-roberto-bot-chassis-controls-with-modkit

Building instructions for the robot build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It is called "Frankenstein" because the two motors are in two different directions.

If you take a look at the videos for this attachment you will see a nice idea on taking the track and the ambulance. These two vehicles from the FIRST LEGO League 2013 competition had to be collected and returned back to base.

Built from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts. 

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms Catapult Motor and Touch Sensor that are used for triggers for firing objects

This attachment is accomplishing four missions and partly two more mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024. It is for the Chain Monster Robot. It solve mission 1 - 3D CINEMA, mission 2 - Theater Scene Change, mission 5 - Augmented Reality Statue and mission 9 - Movie set. It partially solves mission 14 - Audience delivery and mission 15 - Expert delivery by taking Sam the Stage Manager to the base and delivering it to the movie set area.

This attachment was intended for and tested on the Gazon, LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot. It is meant to help the robot complete the 5th mission of the FLL Cargo Connect competition.

This is the second type of an active geared attachment. "Active" means that is is power by a motor. "Geared" means that it uses gears. "Reusable" means that you can easily extend the attachment with additional parts - eg - you can reuse it. It shows a basic principle of how power is transferred between different axles that have different orientation in space- like when one of the axles is horizontal and the other is vertical. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and others. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

Luna 3 comes from the soviet spaceship with the same name, that was the first to take a picture of the far side of the moon.

This robot is made to hold a phone, that can be used as a camera to take a picture of the far side of the moon. The robot is pretty simple, it uses two large EV3 motors to move around and also has a stand for the phone. The stand is made to work with most phones, but you can easily modify it to work with any camera.

This is the attachment of Team "Nightbeast", with which they do:
M11–Escape Velocity and M13–Observatory
The Observatory result depends on the model. Sometimes the pointer is in the orange area otherwise in the white area.

Roberto is one handed robot with four bars mehanizm. He is more durable then Pesho.

This robot is based on Roberto Chassis.
