How LEGO robots turn
The robot is equipped with two motors, one for each side. As a result, whenever the robot turns, it always follows an arc path. The size and radius of this arc can vary depending on the turn.

Boomer - Car with two driving large motors built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3
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.

Clank - LEGO EV3 Ammo Truck
Building instructions for a LEGO Truck. The robot is presented as an Ammo Truck but it can be used for transporting various other objects, too. The construction has a rear drive with each of the rear wheels driven by a Large Lego Motor. The front wheels steer using a Medium Lego Motor. The Brick is placed at the front of the construction which gives the opportunity to easily attach different sensors, based on the task.

Dwell - LEGO Mindstorms EV3 car with a medium motor.
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.

SkiD00, the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Snowmobile robot
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?

Francesco 2 - Simple LEGO EV3 Car with differential rear-wheel-drive
Francesco 2 is inspired by the robot Francesco.
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. Differently, from Francesco, Francesco 2 has space where a locking mechanism is meant to be built for the differential.

Big Wheelster - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot
Big Wheelster, as the name suggests, is a robot with a big wheel! The large wheel is built using SPIKE Prime baseplates. The robot also features an interesting steering mechanism. At the front, we’ve added a touch sensor to detect obstacles—and hopefully avoid them!

Program for Big Wheelster - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot - LSAv3.4.5.llsp3
This program makes the Big Wheelster – LEGO SPIKE Prime robot move forward until it bumps into something! This robot features one big wheel powered by two Medium Motors. What’s interesting is that the motors must spin in opposite directions to make the wheel rotate. That’s why we’ve created a My Block to control the robot.
The My Block allows you to set how far the robot should move—either a specific number of rotations or indefinitely (by setting it to 0 rotations). It also includes a logic option for direction: use 1 for forward and 0 for backward.
When the robot detects a bump using the front touch sensor, the program makes it reverse using the back wheels, helping it avoid hitting the same obstacle again!
