Building instructions for the dispenser mission model. The models is used in the Logistics mission of FLLCasts Off-season Challenge 2019.

Building instructions for the barrier mission model. The model is used in the Parking Control mission of FLLCasts Off-season Challenge 2019.

Building instruction for the power switch mission model. The model is used in the Power supply mission of FLLCasts Off-season Challenge 2019.

This is a vehicle that is used to help you to learn programming, to experiment with addons, attachments and constructions. It has a frame. Which is nice. A frame is always nice. 

It has two wheels at the back, but this is needed only if you have them.

Building instructions for the truck mission model. The model is used in the Road assistance mission of FLLCasts Off-season Challenge 2019.

This is a LEGO Mindstorms Boxing robot. The inspiration story goes like this "One day we though - Let's play SUMO at this robotics demonstration, but let's make it more interesting. Let's play sumo with Humanoid Robots". We decided to build a boxing robot. The goal of the robot is to press the touch sensor on the other robot and it could be very fun. Perfect robot for demonstration. It is controlled by a joystick using the Bluetooth connection.

Here are the joystick and the programs for the joystick and the robots.

These are modules for you to create your own robot that sorts plastic trash as used in C2. The two modules are not connected anywhere, they are just placed together so you have an easier time imagining the robot.

Building instructions for LEGO EV3 robot with color wheel that can be rotated through the medium motor. The color wheel is at the front of the robot while there is a color sensor at the back. The color sensor could read the color from another robot. The robot can be used in classes with students to play the telephone game.

An example of a program for controlling the robot could be found at https://www.fllcasts.com/programs/kmeat9-ev3-g-myblock-for-rotating-the-color-wheel-randomly

This construction demonstrates one way of using а rack with a gear wheel. It allows to turn circular motion in to a liniar one.

This is the Little Truckie, but upgraded with an arm so it can teach you to be a good driver with lager number of controls. Now you can drive it and lift things at the same time.

The programs for controlling Truckie are at:

Truckie - Easy To Drive VEX IQ Program for Modkit

Truckie Hard To Drive VEX IQ Program for Modkit

Dwell is a car built with a LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 set. It uses the medium motor for powering the back wheel and one more medium motor for rotating the front wheels and thus turning. Of course, there is a differential at the back.  

An awesome ski-jet robot, steering with a medium motor and powered by a single large motor. It also has a pair of inclined treads, making it especially well-suited for the harsh winter terrain.

*There is a mistake in this robot you will have to find. How would you make it work?

Whitiki comes from Maori and means Belt.

The robot uses a medium motor to run the belt and a color sensor to identify the color of the ball coming in. There are 56 chain pieces in the robot.

Background

A space telescope is astonishing, but it can’t beat the accessibility and simplicity of a college or science museum observatory – that is, if you know how and where to point it.

Mission

Rotate the observatory to a precise direction.

Scores

• Get the pointer tip completely in orange, or partly covering either of orange’s end-borders: 20 OR
• Get the pointer tip completely in white: 18 OR
• Get the pointer tip completely in grey, or partly covering either of grey’s end-borders: 16
• Possible Scores: 0, 16, 18, 20

Scoring Requirements

• The result must be visible at the end of the match.

The Sports Utility Vehicle box robot is the new marvelous box robot that we've created. It is designed for teams that would like to learn how to build balanced, stable and working robot chassis following our box principle. It is smaller and easier to build than box robot 1 and it is more simple than box robot 2. 

The main advantages of this robot compared to previous box robots are 

 - motors in the right direction, so when rotating the motor forward, the robot moves forward.

 - it is much easier to attach attachments. There are 4 different gears on which you could attach attachments. 

 - it has a large clearance - which means that it could move over obstacles.

Of course, it has a Gyro and two Color Sensors.  Not only that, but we have all the cables shown in the construction.

When not to use this robot?

The SUV Box robot is design to be used with a Gyro sensor and two Color Sensors for alignment. It is not working well for following lines as the sensors are very high and they are very high to allow for high clearance of the chassis. If you need to follow lines we recommend the Dominator X-Y robot

Background

Space stations allow us to learn about and even practice living in space, but improved technology and new international partners require modules to be easily interchangeable.

Mission

The robot needs to remove and insert modules among the habitation hub’s portholes.

Scores

• Move the cone module completely into the base: 16
• Insert the tube module into the habitation hub port, west side: 16
• Transfer/insert the docking module into the habitation hub port, east side: 14
• Possible scores: 0, 16, 32, 46

Scoring Requirements

• Results must be visible at the end of the match.
• Inserted modules must not be touching anything except the habitation hub. > Needs to be visible at the end of the match.

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.
