Building Instructions

You can attach a frame around the front wheels to make them more stable and to allow for better aligning. The module extends the front wheel built at BigDaddy Front - front wheels mechanism module for a large LEGO Mindstorms Competition Robot

Zat is fun. Zat is great. It is a simple construction for a car with 4 large wheels. And who does not like cars with large wheels. Built from LEGO SPIKE Core set 45678 + LEGO SPIKE Expansion Set 45680 we had a lot of fun with it on Sunday. It was an idea of my wife and the kids took a lot of time putting things on in and moving it around. Just put things on it and play with it.

Zatter is the big brother of Zat and Zatty. Zatter is here to take the load. It has a large container on its back, suitable for placing different toys inside and playing with them. Built from LEGO SPIKE Core set 45678 + LEGO SPIKE Expansion Set 45680 it was designed by my wife and just slightly improved by me and my colleagues. We spend a good hour or two with the kids placing different plush toys and playing with it.

Play time for a week: About an hour

Zatty is the smaller sibling if Zat. Zatty is small and cute. It's a car on a frame with 4 small wheels and of course two mini figures riding in it or on it. Built from LEGO SPIKE Core set 45678 + LEGO SPIKE Expansion Set 45680 it was designed by my 7 years old daughter and then slightly improved by me and the colleagues.

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.

The robot is named after the South Pole–Aitken basin, the largest impact crater in the Solar System that has been discovered on the far side of the Moon.

Astronauts, prepare to enter lunar orbit! This robot comes equipped with a stand that can hold a camera or a phone in order to take a picture of the far side of the moon. If your phone or camera does not fit, the stand can be easily modified to suit your needs. With its two motors, Aitken can make both wide and narrow circles around the Moon to ensure the perfect shot!
