Building Instructions

These are instructions on how to build the:

• Tan Building Units

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.

Purpose

We want students to be able to easily find the parts and to put the parts back in the designated compartments.

Printing instructions

Files are printed on both sides of 160-gram sheet of paper A3 format.

The sorting sheet is designed to fit in the cover of the box. To gather in the lid, the excess parts of the printed sheet must be cut off the markers on the front of the sheet.

To extend the life of the sheets, you can laminate them either with a "laminate matte" or a simple laminate. The disadvantage of the simple laminate is that there is a lot of gloss. The disadvantage of laminate matte is that it has to be sealed with a clear PVA C-200 adhesive to prevent it from opening over time.

Turning direction

We recommend printing doublesided and turning over the "short edge", like a book. If you decide, you may flip the printed result over the long side. Both options are available at you local print center.

This is the first VEX training ground for building your driving skils. It is the single player mode field because it is designed for a single robot to run on the field.

A robot that was used in the WRO Elementary 2018 Robot competition. It is a nice idea of how the motors could control different levers to push things around

A 3D scheme on how to connect the front steering motor to the Raspberry PI. This includes the Motor Driver and the batteries. The rear motor is also on this scene. 

You can position the motors on the construction in a number of different ways. We are exploring the advantages and disadvantages of each of them. These are building instructions for the first way to position the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 motors.

These loops can be used to practice different methods of collecting them. This is a very common challenge in FLL.

In Spanish, "huracán" means "hurricane."

This robot is designed to resemble a hurricane-type carnival ride. It has two seats for LEGO minifigs, each attached using a flexible hose part. The robot spins them around using a medium motor. This can be controlled using a force sensor, which looks like a clown and stays at a safe distance from the ride!

"Muni" is short for mountain unicycles - Munis.

This robot is designed to resemble a clown on a unicycle. It uses a large technic gear ring to move forward and backward. On top of the robot is a force sensor, disguised as a clown. You can program it so that when you touch its head, the robot starts!
