The set movement speed block is the sixth block from the Movement palette.
It has one setting and that is the speed change in percentage. This means that at 100% the robot moves the fastest, and at 0% it does not move.
Be careful! When moving at high speed, the robot often becomes inaccurate and turns to a random direction at the beginning of the movement. To prevent this, use a lower speed for higher accuracy.
Courses and lessons with this Tutorial
This Tutorial is used in the following courses and lessons
Level A1 - Space Adventure - Robotics with LEGO SPIKE Prime
That is the first level of the LEGO robotics curriculum for second, third, and fourth-grade students.
A "space adventure" but with robots. Different robot structures are built in this level. The motors are controlled so that the robots perform precise movements around the "earth", "moon" and "sun". We overcome various obstacles after bumping into them thanks to the force sensor. We learn interesting facts about the solar system and space vehicles.

Lesson 3 - Satellite
Introduction
In today's lesson we will make a small robot that will show us how to turn in a circle, arc turn. The topic of the lesson is satellites and we will talk about their applications in our everyday life.
Satellite simply means companion, something that moves along with something else. A natural satellite of the planet Earth is the Moon, and artificial satellites are small spacecraft that are launched into orbit around the earth with the help of rockets.
An orbit is the imaginary path a satellite follows as it goes around the earth. Today we will program our robots to move in circular orbits, but there are also orbits that look like an egg or elliptical orbits.
