Note for the teacher on making the construction more stable, more durable and using beams for this.
Let us do a quick recap of the whole lifting mission and its solution
We calculate the number of rotatios when a gear system is involved. The driving wheel will have to do a number of rotations for the driven wheel to rotate to a desired number of degrees. In our specific case when the driven gear wheel is rotate to about 90 degrees the legs will lift the robot.
Building instructions for a competition robot following the "Box robot" principle. The robot is built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and could be used at FLL and WRO.
In this video we discuss the durability of the construction of LEGO robots and how do we make them more durable.
Following the principles from the previous video, try to make the attachment that you've built, more stable and durable.
In the previous video, we found the correct answer for our task and it is 18.75, or is it?
Sometimes the answer that you get by calculating seems not to be right. Is it the calculation that is wrong. Probably it is not the calculation, but something is happening with the robot.
