The attachment builds on previous episodes this time using two LEGO rubber bands. When a lever is released the rubber band exerts pressure on it and moves it in a circular motion. As an example we are solving the 2012 FIRST LEGO League, Senior Solutions, stove mission (which was quite interesting as a mission)

The FIRST LEGO League 2012, Senior Solutions, Oven mission involved a circular motion. Teams had to build attachments that could move the Oven lever in half a circle. Now this proved to be challenging to do without the use of a motor. It is always a good idea to do every possible mission without a motor because you could save the motor for missions where it is actually not possible to accomplish without them.
Having said that, rubber bands for this mission is a very elegant solution.

FIRST LEGO League Competition. Attachments
This course is a collection of materials for many of the attachments that we've built at FLLCasts before introducing courses. The videos were built as separate different attachments for different competitions and with the following course, we try to give it a structure.

Attachments
You think that you can quickly change the attachments of your LEGO Mindstorms EV3 competition robot? Are you sure? In this first episode of the series you will see how to create and attach attachments without using pins and how faster and easier this could be. You will see the design logic of a few attachments and how they work on the field.

FIRST LEGO League 2012 Senior Solutions. Example soluations
Robotics competition is a large part of the FLL Competition. The field contains missions which give points and the main purpose is to gather maximum number of points for 2:30min. FIRST LEGO League competitions have different themes every year but the tasks have similar functionality. In this video tutorial we will give a brief of missions in Senior Solutions (the theme for 2012).

FIRST LEGO League (FLL) 2012 Senior Solutions. Review of solutions with explanations
These are a couple of structured examples and tutorials of how the missions for FIRST LEGO League 2012 Senior Solutions competition could be accomplished. We've gathered recordings and explanations from which students and teacher can learn a lot. There are pinless attachments, categorization, heavy lifting, a lot of rubber bands and at the end we destroy the field at this robotics competition field mat.
