Building Instructions

Vex IQ robot base which could be used with different attachments. The gravity center of this robot is in the backside and it has a lot of space in front for attachments.

The CubeHunter uses the ultrasonic sensor to detect a ball or cube. Next, the robot catches it and reads the colour of the object using the EV3 colour sensor. The building instructions are suitable for classes with students and if you are working alone at home.

It's the second version of VEX IQ Easy Bot. It's simple as the first one, but the motors are rotated.

It's the third version of the VEX IQ Easy Bot with rotated Robot Brain and castor wheel.

VEX IQ version of an Easy Bot. It's simple and appropriate for classes of students. 

Drawing on how to cut a pipe to be able to collect and store balls in this pipe. The sheet format is ISO A4 and the drawing size is real (100% scale)

This here is a base for a robot that has the brick Upside Down. Have you seen Stranger Things? We would admit that this robot does not look exactly like a 'Demogorgon', but this here is the challenge. Can you use this base and make the robot look like a Demogorgon. Add a picture to the comments section below the material.

Do you have other ideas for Demogorgon? Build them with LEGO and add a picture below this material or send it to [email protected]. We would feature it at FLLCasts.com.

This is a blueprint of dimensions of the FTC 200 mm axle.

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot that we call CastorBot, because it uses the castor ball. 

For the FIRST LEGO League 2016-2017 Animal Allies we prepared an attachment for lifting the robot. The idea of the attachment is to show how you could lift the whole robot with a system of gear wheels, levers, and scissors constructions.

Built mainly from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts but could probably be constructed from NXT sets.

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot that we call the Five Minute Bot because it could be built in Five Minutes.

Note: If the robot is making inconsistent turns due to the floor, modify the castor wheel so it is placed further back in the construction. Thus the center of mass falls more over the tires and the turns are more consistent.

Building instructions for the second module of the Ugbroid robot - the Base.

Building instructions for Module 1 of the Modular EV3 LEGO Mindstorms vehicle - the Trunk.

The goal of this robot is to teach students how to build modular robots. This first part is just one of the modules. 

Again a LEGO animal. This time it looks like an ant. It's interesting that this robot has no wheels and moves in a way very different from the rest of the "wheel robots". 

There is much to be learned about mechanics from the way animals move. Ants are a good example. In the real world, an ant could carry a load of 20x its mass. It would be interesting to see how much load could this robot carry? Try it. 

Building instructions for the Easy Bot built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts. This LEGO robot is suitable for classes with students in robotics and is one of the first robots that we build. It takes about 10-20 minutes to be constructed by first-time participants.

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.

Building instructions for the robot build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It is called "Frankenstein" because the two motors are in two different directions.
