my mouth was gaping almost the hole time. thats incredible especially that u did it practically by yourself! have a good project and u guys are gonna make it to nationals.
haha don't worry about it! The team I'm mentoring hasn't been able to start either. I just made this because I wanted to share some of my ideas and had some extra time in quarantine
Hey, I was wondering if you could explain more about how the programs are designed (what strategies / algorithms do you use?). Your robot seems very accurate and consistent and I was wondering if you could go into detail on how to achieve this.
Just about to start our first FLL season. One thing I notice is that, good FLL teams all use a very large box style robot base, and create many attachments. Although we don't plan to copy the design, it's nice to learn what's inside the huge base and what to be careful for. For example, what supporting wheels do you use? You have lots of heavy pieces to balance the weights, but how do you decide where to put them and how to judge the weights are well balanced? Moving straight and accurately is hard. Is there any material/resources that you would recommend to improve on it? Thank you very much.
Those are all important questions! I will be making a robot design video in the near future explaining all of those things. As for moving straight and accurately, I recommend looking into using sensors, including Builderdude35's gyro assisted driving and line following tutorials. Hopefully some videos I make in the future can answer your questions!
@@brickering5166 Oh right, thanks for the clarification! Brilliant ideas btw, the team you’re mentoring is lucky to have you! Also, does your program have the ability to choose which colored cube to send to the other team’s mat depending on what they are sending to your side?
We finished the online part and we didn't get any rewards (plus we used the Spike Prime kit and a few parts from a different lego set only one kid in our team bought) (For some reason he built a robot that would be much better for our team after the time we did the online part) I think everyone had to record 3 runs. Our best run was 250 points.
watching again amazed by that launcher. How did you make it and what mechanism is thtat. Its Impossible to fit so many cubes there yet you placed so much for basketball and boccia
I'll definitely be covering it in an upcoming tutorial! Don't worry, all of the cubes fit in there, the storage for the cubes is taller and bigger than it looks
Yes, I believe that generally, all lego pieces can be used. There are some special cases, (for example, power functions cannot be used) so check the rulebook to be sure! I think that only legos can be used, so cardboard and tape cannot.
Gravity flips the tire! I'm planning on making a video about both mechanisms, but the basic rundown is that since the axis of rotation is not centered, gravity will flip the tire when the tire is lifted. The bench mechanism is activated when the robot touches a bench and a little rubber band lever pushes it down.
Hey Franklin, I saw your video here, your solutions look impressive! Do you mind sharing your solutions with my team as a reference design? If you don't mind, we would like to explore the opportunities to purchase the design for your great work, let me know what you think.
Hi! I actually have made videos of the first 3 attachments already and am working on videos for the last 2. Each of the videos has PDF instructions linked in the description for the mechanisms I use. I hope this helps!
Great work. I love seeing the line squaring and wall squaring used so well. You are clearly writing good code. Are you use EV3 lab, EV3 Classroom (the new scratch based language) or Python?
Yup! That mechanism is very accurate, just a bit slow. As for the time, I'm actually in high school, and I'm not competing this year. I just made this video to share some ideas!
Would you mind if I used some footage from this in an upcoming video I am making (over on a different channel). I need some background footage of a robot and all mine is trash. (I would credit you in the vid)
So you are a high schooler who has aged out of FLL? Why are you showing mission solutions on youtube? Let the kids who are still young enough to compete solve the missions their own way.
I have been a FLL coach for many years, I don't think watching this video will destroy kids' creativity or independent learn. The students on my team love to see more tutorials coming out actually, these mechanisms taught here help them expand their thinking for solving missions.
Part of the mandate of FLL is that you share your ideas with others. That way, we all learn. I've been an FLL coach for 9 years. Seeing videos like this always inspires our kids, but I've never once seen them outright copy someone else's work. Instead, it helps them to think outside the driving base instructions that come with the robots. Thanks for posting!
My tutorial and building instructions video for the bench run is already up! Check it out here! ruclips.net/video/Vyr9mTrw8CI/видео.html My tutorial and building instructions video for the Basketball Hoop, Boccia, and Weight Machines missions is also up!

Brickering: 595 points
My team: Hasn't even met in-person yet because of covid
But seriously good job!

@@brickering5166 Well great job :)
@@sirswagger21 my team has meat 3 times, 4 in about 20 min, and we only have 275 points
I can't stop laughing at the original comment. Because its the same in our case
noice
Amazing!! Thanks for sharing!! We had the same idea for the step counter to block the mechanism so it goes faster!
Wow!!! That was just awesome and their robot only has a couple of attachments my team has on for ever mission so like good job!
My team only made one so far 🤣
Awesome! looking forward to watching your tutorials
This is really really good. I know you can't score all that in a 2.5 min run, but that is really impressive.
Also, can I review this video later?
@@FLL-Explained go for it! excited to hear about what you think!
Great ideas, thanks for sharing some inspiration! Looking forward to your tutorials on mechanisms. Something our team will definitely benefit from.
Nice Attachment! That is a very nice idea.
Hey, I was wondering if you could explain more about how the programs are designed (what strategies / algorithms do you use?). Your robot seems very accurate and consistent and I was wondering if you could go into detail on how to achieve this.
they definitely have a light sensor, idk if that helps or not

I hope My Team can do as well as you!
Is the misson 2 supposed to not go smoothly?
@@person3874 is that step counter, because it has a mechanism where you can’t just move it fast, but you can if you block the mechanism
The tires aren’t in their correct positions. If they were, there were some points in your runs where the robot would’ve collided with the heavy tire.
Watch the second run carefully, when the robot is turning it knocks the tires into the circle on purpose so that it doesn't collide.
@@brickering5166 Oh right, thanks for the clarification! Brilliant ideas btw, the team you’re mentoring is lucky to have you! Also, does your program have the ability to choose which colored cube to send to the other team’s mat depending on what they are sending to your side?
@@akhilraonarahari6376 Thanks! Yup, we can also send the other colored cube to match the other team.
Cool video! By any chance, do you know of a way to get the field for the season as an individual, or is it only available to registered teams?
I haven’t even started school yet! (UK) I’m retired though

Hi there could you please put up the attachment you made for the step machine - really cool idea and I am dumb-ass at engineering, Ta. (Australia)
I definitely will! I'm currently making tutorials for all of my runs!
Well done! Hope ur team does great! :D
wait a minute. . .

Are you allowed to use legos from other lego kids(other than Mindstorms kits), also are you allowed to use other material such as cardboard and tape
Yes, I believe that generally, all lego pieces can be used. There are some special cases, (for example, power functions cannot be used) so check the rulebook to be sure! I think that only legos can be used, so cardboard and tape cannot.
your videos are so good
Thanks so much!
How does that flip mechanism work for the heavy tire. Same for the bench mechanism. What activates that?.
Gravity flips the tire! I'm planning on making a video about both mechanisms, but the basic rundown is that since the axis of rotation is not centered, gravity will flip the tire when the tire is lifted. The bench mechanism is activated when the robot touches a bench and a little rubber band lever pushes it down.
Um... isn't like past the time limit? But I olve the ideas. If you get it in the timelimit, 2cnd
Really cool build! Good job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very cool!!
Thanks a lot!
@@brickering5166 you're welcome
I am Brazilian and I speak English.
@@PedroWenz Wow! I didn't know people in Brazil watched my videos! You're English is good!
@@brickering5166 Thanks!!
hey brickering! how did u dipense those cubes for boccia?
Hi! I actually covered it in this video: ruclips.net/video/iuOsLNGKFH0/видео.html
This video explains how it works and has building instructions too!
@@brickering5166 thanks!
this robot is a OH LAWD HE COMIN
reference-ChonkChart
LOL
How did you make the step counter go that fast? That is not even possible.
I'm making a video about it! Basically its a mechanism that prevents the pendulum from swinging, which prevents the step counter from being stopped
@@brickering5166 wow thanks

Great work. I love seeing the line squaring and wall squaring used so well. You are clearly writing good code. Are you use EV3 lab, EV3 Classroom (the new scratch based language) or Python?
oh my gosh that is insanity !😊😊😊🤑🤑😜👌👌👍👍
Can you make tutorial about automatic fll modules detachement?
Hi! I'm not sure which mechanism you're asking about, can you point it out? Is it when I leave an attachment on the field?
@@brickering5166 yes it is when you leave an attachment on the field
@@brickering5166 I think he's asking for a tutorial to build the base of the robot (where are all the motors).
@@cypcraft9171 yup I'll definitely add a tutorial about it!
@@brickering5166 nice
Is this the max amount of points? If you know the max, I would like to know. Thanks.
I believe that the max is 605, so my runs score 10 points less than the max
@@brickering5166 Cool, thanks!
Can you do a tutorial on the attachment that you made to flip the black tire?
I definitely will!
Amazing!
I like your tire flip mechanism.
Is it high accuracy?
You have to complete missions in 2.5 minutes.
Yup! That mechanism is very accurate, just a bit slow. As for the time, I'm actually in high school, and I'm not competing this year. I just made this video to share some ideas!
Hi just had a question, did the blue wheel count as it did cross the red line.
I think so, since the red line only applies to the big wheel.
i was wondering wut u do with the phone . cuz in the video u took it back home. do u get points for that????
wait nvm i saw u put it back onto the board. u can flip the phone urself. i did not know that.
you should make a vid showing your programs for all this
whats the name of the robots base
this seems all well and good, but how do you want to complete in time?
hi! I'm actually not competing this year since I'm a mentor. This video mostly serves to provide some mechanism ideas!
The mechanism you use
Nice
You can't take the blue wheel in your home because it crosses the magenta line!
I think that the rule only applies to the big tire, correct me if I'm wrong though!
@@brickering5166 You're right
@@lphenix4558 Thanks for looking out though
Hi! Can you explain how you make the seconds run?
Sorry for the late reply I was very busy with schoolwork. Video coming out soon!
@@brickering5166 ok, no prob😁 i see the new video, very cool!💯🤍🖤💙
Would you mind if I used some footage from this in an upcoming video I am making (over on a different channel). I need some background footage of a robot and all mine is trash. (I would credit you in the vid)
yeah sure I don't mind at all!
@@brickering5166 thanks!
I mean i seriously doubt that this is in the 2:30 limit but otherwise really nice
just saying the two tires for tire flip are incorrectly positioned??
0:34
Doesnt matter
@@maciejmatuszek4902 it actually does btw
Time up!!!
wow
How many motors did you use?
4 motors 2 large motors for driving and 2 medium motors for attachments
@@brickering5166 oh ok tysm!
I don't speak english, but I need to demonstre my hate to the mission of basketball. I HATE THIS MISSION
Congratulations boys!
can we buy it?
good job, seventh
Wow good job being seventh 😂
Good job, Fifth
gg
Perfect but the time limit is 2:30 so
Wow
We only reached 320
1:34 I love that cat xD Also good job with all these missions
Thanks! Isn't he adorable I think you're the only one to notice so far
that is not 595 point or is it ????
Good job, second
today well be speed running 5k views
ok but its more than 2.30 minute
300th thumbs uppper
That was very good. However, for some things, i felt like you made it too complicated.

Good job, third
That’s so hard to build
Good job, first
