This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M15 Research Vessel of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot). The run uses a pinless attachment designed to push the ship loaded with cargo to its destination. After the previous run, the hook part is removed and replaced with a locking component that holds the ship securely during transport.

The locking mechanism uses friction pins to keep the ship stable until it reaches its destination, where it can then be released smoothly. This approach ensures the cargo remains secure throughout the journey while allowing for safe delivery and quick unloading at the final position.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M15 Research Vessel of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot. In this series of test runs, the goal is to achieve 10 out of 10 successful deliveries, with the robot pushing the loaded ship to its destination, releasing it cleanly, and moving to the other launch area without a single failed attempt.

The run uses a pinless attachment with a locking mechanism and friction pins to secure the cargo during movement and allow smooth release upon arrival. The precise programming and stable design ensure consistent performance across the trials.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M10 Send Over the Submersible of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot). The run uses a simple pinless attachment that engages with the front gearwheel of the robot to raise the yellow slider. Built-in stopping beams ensure the attachment always starts from the same position for consistent operation.

This minimalistic but reliable design allows the robot to perform the lift with stability and repeatability, making it well-suited for a time-sensitive mission. The attachment’s simplicity also enables quick setup between runs, keeping it competition-ready.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M10 Send Over the Submersible of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot. In this series of test runs, the goal is to achieve 10 out of 10 successful deliveries where the submersible reaches the opposing field, and the robot disengages without touching the mission model at the match’s end.

The run uses a simple pinless attachment with stopping beams for consistent positioning, combined with programming that integrates a parallel timer for perfect match-end execution. This setup gives the robot the highest possible success rate for both mission requirements across repeated trials.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M8 Artificial Habitat of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot). The run uses a simple active pinless attachment mounted at the front of the robot, designed for precise engagement with the mission model.

The goal is to position all four crabs upright with their yellow bases touching the mat for maximum points, a task requiring careful alignment and controlled movements. While it is possible to complete the mission with fewer crabs upright, this run is programmed for the full score, using dedicated movement commands in a separate run for maximum accuracy. This approach combines a reliable mechanical design with precise navigation to meet the mission’s demanding scoring conditions.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M8 Artificial Habitat of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot). The run uses a simple active pinless attachment mounted at the front of the robot for precise engagement with the mission model.

The goal is a perfect 10 out of 10 runs by positioning all four crabs upright with their yellow bases touching the mat. You can find the full explaining tutorial here.

This programming tutorial focuses on accomplishing M8 Artificial Habitat of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot).

The sequence is optimized to position all four crabs upright with their yellow bases touching the mat for maximum points. The code uses straightforward but highly accurate movement commands, ensuring the robot engages and adjusts the mission model with precision. This dedicated program minimizes errors and allows for consistent high-scoring runs, combining efficient programming with the attachment’s reliable design.

Before you connect wires in your project, you need to take off the plastic covering (insulation) at the ends so the metal wire is exposed. This is called stripping the wire. You can do it with a wire stripper or even with simple tools you may have at home.

In this video tutorial, we demonstrate a full run of all the missions in the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge robotics competition, using the MiniBox - a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot.

These kinds of runs are extremely useful for teams looking to see how they can tackle the entire range of missions, pushing their accuracy, speed, and self-control to the limit.

In this video tutorial, we focus on M10 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge competition. We use the Chain Monster, a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot, equipped with a three-axle attachment. The mission's objective is to lift the sound mixer sliders and position them precisely to score the maximum points. While the mission may seem challenging at first, once you understand how the attachment works and how to properly connect it to the robot, it becomes a breeze. Let’s give it a try!

This tutorial demonstrates how we accomplish 5 missions in a row with a single robot and three attachments. This is a true multiple missions run for the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED. We Drop parts, we pull from the Smart grid, we push a lever, we collect a few energy units and we deliver the dinosaur toy.

This 10 out of 10 tutorials is about consistency and reliability of the robot when accomplishing 5 missions in a row. We explore how we move between mission models. The programming is in the previous tutorial, here we look and discuss the behaviour of the robot

In this video tutorial, we demonstrate how to accomplish M11 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge competition. We use the Chain Monster - a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot equipped with gears and a pinless attachment that will rotate the M11 Light Show.

We would continue from the previous program where we used variables and we would change this to arrays.

Building a rack is a very important skill during competitions. You should try to build one, learn how to use it and have it as a tool for you next robots. But for this particular BoxRobot, we will not continue with a rack.
