This video tutorial demonstrates an attachment that flips a mission model. The mission model is attached to the field, but it contains a lever. This lever must be flipped from one side to the other. There is a switch. We use a pinless active attachment with gear wheels, and you can see how this works in the tutorial. There is no use of sensors as we don't need them. We will leave the alignment and positioning for some other tutorials.

This LEGO robotics video tutorial is a 10 out of 10 run of the one of the most complex missions at the FIRST LEGO League 2021 RePlay competition. As the mission has three parts we are measuring the success rate of each part of the mission. What you can learn from this tutorial is how to achieve three missions in a single run including line following and a lot of aligning

In this video tutorial we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED mission called M04 Solar Farm. We use the chain monster box robot along with a passive attachment that helps us collect 3 of the energy units. The interesting thing about the mission is the collection of the units, of course, but also the way this robot manoeuvres when there is not enough space. It aligns to the lines, it uses the color and motion sensors. Really advance way to align the robot.

In this video tutorial we pull the Smart grid mission model from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 competition. The goal is to lift the hand to connect with the hand on the other team field. We do this my pulling on the attachment and we reuse the same "hand" that we have for collecting.

In this video tutorial, we demonstrate the accomplishment of three missions in a single run. The competition is FIRST LEGO League 2022/2023 SUPERPOWERED and the missions involve carrying and delivering a dinosaur toy, delivering energy units, and delivering the innovation project model.

This is a video tutorial where we focus on M14 and M15 of FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge competition. Here, we demonstrate the precision of the attachment. Try to build the attachment and accomplish the missions.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial for a 3 missions run. The robot goes out of base and accomplishes 3 missions in a single run. It demonstrates the consistency and reliability of the robot and its program that uses sensors.

This FIRST LEGO League robotics video tutorial is about the Treadmill mission and how it could be accomplished. The mission is from FLL 2020 RePlay competition. Almost every year there is a mission of this type where the robot must spend a lot of time with the mission model in order to turn or lift something. These are quite interesting and challenging missions.

In this video tutorial we accomplish 5 missions in a single run with the Chain Monster box robot. It accomplishes 5 missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 robotics competition.

In this video tutorial we look at programming the Kriket box robot to accomplish 5 missions. It is a long program for a long run that's why we are dedicating a separate tutorial. We are using LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Word Blocks app.

In this video tutorial we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2022 missions called Wind Turbine, Television and Rechargeable Battery. We demonstrate how 3 missions could be accomplished in the single run and in the same time with a single attachment.

This is a precise drop tutorial where we demonstrate how to accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 Load Cargo mission that requires us to precisely drop a cargo into the drain. It is not an easy task, but it has a trick. A trick that allows us to 'shake' the cargo a little bit. The attachment is also auto-correcting to improve consistency. Use this principle whenever you need to drop things.

In this video tutorial, we are accomplishing three missions in a single run from the FIRST LEGO League MASTERPIECE season. We are using our new out-of-box LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot, called Kufar. Have you used such robots? No? Well, let's dive deeper in the construction of out-of-box robots and see how convenient and user-friendly they can be. Take one brick with a couple of sensors and let your imagination run wild as you create the most inventive attachments.

This 10 out of 10 tutorial is a complete uncut recording and it shows how the Chain Monster box robot accomplishes 5 missions in a single run and it does this 10 out of 10 times. It is from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 robotics competition.

This FRIST LEGO League video tutorial is about he Boccia Share mission from FIRST LEGO League 2020 RePlay competition. In the tutorial we demonstrate how to push on a lever to release a mission model part - in this case a box. You have the choice before the competition to cooperate with the other team and to decide if you are going to do the blue or the red box.

This tutorial explains the use of motion and light/color sensors to accomplish a complex mission split into three parts. It gets into detail about how we keep a straight line with the motion sensor, follow a line with the color sensors, and transition between different parts of the program by aligning and detecting lines with the sensor. The goal is to get to a reliable and consistent behavior of the robot. On top of that, it is configurable, as we've left a few parameters that could be set to configure the behavior for a specific robot, venue, lighting, battery level, and wheels friction.

In this video tutorial, we accomplish 3 missions from FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED competition and we do it 10 out of 10 times. We successfully deliver the three objects to 2 different places on the mat. It is interesting that we have to carry the dinosaur toy from one side of the field to the other.

In this video tutorial we accomplish 3 missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWER robotics competition. The three missions are wind turbine, television, rechargeable battery. The robot uses a program with sensor compared to the previous way we've accomplished the missions with the same robot.

In this video tutorial we look at an active attachment that uses gear wheel and the attachment is general enough to be suitable for reuse. This means that a lot of different missions could be accomplished with the same attachment. The goal of the attachment is to transfer power to a lever through a system of axles and gear wheels. It is interesting that we change the orientation of the gear wheels.

In this video tutorial we use an active attachment with a gears, built only form LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor parts, to accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2020 Treadmill mission. The goal of the mission is to rotate the mission model for a couple of seconds so that a pointer makes a half circle rotation. What you will learn is a good principle to approach such missions.

In this video tutorial, we accomplish three missions in a row. It is a little longer and more detailed tutorial, but hey, 3 missions, one after the other. These are the Wind Turbine, where we have to push 3-4 times and collect the energy units, the Watch Television, where we reach the mission model and slightly push, and, of course, the Rechargeable Battery - where we collect the energy units.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial demonstrating the accuracy of an active gear attachment that accomplishes the Treadmill mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2020 RePlay competition. When the robot is well aligned to the line before that it is easy for the robot to accomplish the mission. You will see how we make use of the friction of the wheel to rotate the mission model.

This video tutorial demonstrated the use of an active gear attachment for catching a wheel and pulling it. This is how we accomplish the Rowing Mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2021 competition. What you will learn is how such an attachment works. How you transfer power from the top of the robot where the motors are to the bottom of the robot where the catching mechanism is. Check out the building instructions for the attachment.

In this video tutorial, we push two of the mission models with a pinless active attachment with gears. The goal is to push the mission models after the blue lines. This attachment is interesting as it demonstrates a non-straightforward idea of how we can push the mission models. We explain the Scratch program and how we use the motion sensors - you will learn how to turn to a specific angle by using the motion sensor.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial demonstrating the accuracy of a Flip Attachment for the FIRST LEGO League 2020 Cell Phone Mission. The flip attachment flips a phone. Moves forward and flip it. This is a tricky business. It might not work. The trick is to approach the mission model from the right angle. In the tutorial you will see a demonstration and will learn how such a mission could be accomplished accurately with a LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor robot and attachment with gear wheels.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial demonstrating the consistency with which the Kufar robot accomplishes M12, M13, and M15 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge season. Kufar is an out-of-the-box LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot, meaning you don’t need to connect attachments—just slide the brick into the attachment frames.

In this run, the robot collects the mini-figures using a rubber band mechanism, rotates the chicken with a gear mechanism, and pushes and pulls the M13 Craft Creator mission model.
