Level 2 from "FLLCasts Certified VEX IQ Robot Driver - Class R1" certification path is to start on the border of the field, move through to the last obstacle, turn and return back to the first one. turn once again and go up to the second one, turn around one last time and sprint towards the finish line at the border of the field.
For Level 3 you need to slalom along the field. Start on the border of the field move forward until the first obstacle. Turn after it, continue forward, then turn around the second obstacle, continue forward and turn around the last obstacle. Again continue forward, turn around the second obstacle, continue straight around the first obstacle and sprint towards the finish line at the border of the field.
In this tutorial we go through the VEX IQ Challenge. Most of the challenges are related with manipulating objects. The most common object used in competitions are balls. That is why we take a look at a simple mechanism that can be used for throwing a ball.
What is a single, and what is two degrees of freedom
How do you synchronise the two levers to move with the same speed, but in opposite directions?
