In order to do this, you must know how to use many programming blocks in one program. You must also know a few things about the motors as well. Finally, you must learn more about the settings of the Move block.

For about 5 minutes

Try the yo-yo yourself for no more than five minutes.

You are not expected to solve it in just five minutes. Simply try your hand with the task and see where the challenging part is. Experiment with the software.

Then return to the course and watch the rest of the videos where we have your problems covered.

English

Previously we've learned how to move the robot forward. In this module we'll continue and at the end we'll have a program that makes the robot work like a Yo-yo forward, backward. Now to learn this we must expand our knowledge with a few things. First, we must learn how to use a number of blocks, we must learn a few more things about the motors. And a few more things about the blocks that program the motors and the configurations of these blocks, the settings. Again, at the end we'll have a Yo-yo challenge and with this we can then control most of the movements of our robots.
