Time to lift the robot. The first approach is by using the 40 teeth gear wheels that come with the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and NXT robotics sets. 

Where should you lift the robot? Especially if you don`t have the mission model that we are using

This animation demonstrates a vertical lift attachment. This is an attachment that transfer a circular motion from the motors to a linear motion and is a very powerful concept. We demonstrate it with a LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor robot build from 51515 set. This is arguably one of the most complex attachments in this course.

In this video tutorial we focus on accomplishing a part of M08 of FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE season. The mission is to lift and unlock the lever to make room for rolling the camera. It's a simple action but requires the robot to be stable and accurate. We use the Chain Monster - a powerful LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot.

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!

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 demonstrate a robot attachment that could be used to lift loops and other objects. Almost every year there is a mission at FIRST LEGO League competitions that involve lifting and the principle is interesting. You can build the attachment, robot and mission model from a single LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 set and learn a principle of building an attachment for lifting.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial in which the MiniBox robot accomplishes M10 and M15 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge. One run takes less than 5 seconds as the mission model is very close to the base, which is why the video is not that long.
