Wheel condition WARNING
Wheel condition plays a crucial role in the performance of any robot, so it’s common practice to maintain your robot before testing and especially before a competition. Here are some steps you can take to ensure that any variations in the robot’s performance aren’t due to the wheels:

PID line following
PID is the most popular method for programming line-following robots. It’s a bit complex, so this tutorial is longer, as we’ll break it down into steps and explain each element of the equation.
This approach to programming line-following robots is not ideal for beginners. Attempting to learn this as a first step in competition preparation may give a misleading impression of the competition's complexity and could discourage students from learning the necessary skills to compete in this category.

Kufar - Easy SPIKE Prime out-of-box robot
Introducing Kufar! In Bulgarian, Kufar means "suitcase," and just like a suitcase, this robot is easy to "pack" with different attachments for each task.
Unlike traditional box robots, Kufar is an "out-of-box" design, enabling fast, easy attachment swaps. This flexibility allows teams to build a new chassis with customized attachments for each run, making transitions quick but requiring more parts and careful handling due to its gear transmission, which can sometimes cause gear slippage or play.
To improve precision, Kufar’s gear transmission is optimized for lower speeds. Kufar also includes a color sensor to detect specific colored bricks on attachments and a force sensor to start corresponding programs. With two motors for movement and one for attachments, Kufar is compact, efficient, and easy to handle, especially with its sturdy top handle.
We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this innovative concept and hope you find it equally fun and inspiring!

FLL 2024: Full run - Nautiq box robot accomplishing all missions
In this video tutorial, we demonstrate a full run for the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED challenge, completing all missions in a single sequence. Each mission is shown individually beforehand, with close-up views of how the attachments work and the principles behind their design. All attachments are pinless, making them quick to change during the run, though aligning and loading the robot still requires practice. The strategy involves moving from one base to the other while accomplishing as many missions as possible, including retrying those close to base when needed.
While the complete run takes longer than the official 2.5 minutes, the focus here is on demonstrating reliability, consistency, and the trade-offs between time and scoring points. In some cases, missions are skipped to focus on higher-value tasks, but in this run, we aim to complete them all. The result is a strong performance that comes close to the maximum possible score.
