Building Instructions

Do you have some awesome remote controlled racer cars? Have you ever wanted to see which one is faster? Or maybe having a speed race with your homies. You can do all that and much more with this amazing LEGO Mindstorms EV3 radar robot. It will also ring police sirens when you break the speed limit, just know that you're declared WANTED!

An example program for using this robot could be found here.

Building instructions for the Formula 1 Racing Car, built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It can turn with the help of a small motor and is driven by two large ones.

Umjaho - from the language of the Zulu tribe. It means "competition"

This LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot has three sensors - touch, color and ultrasonic. When the touch sensor is pressed the robot starts moving. The color sensor is used for following lines and the ultrasonic sensor is used to detect any robots in front of the robot. 

Dwell is a car built with a LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 set. It uses the medium motor for powering the back wheel and one more medium motor for rotating the front wheels and thus turning. Of course, there is a differential at the back.  

This robot is a simplified spinoff of the Box Robots (Box Robot 1 and Box Robot 2). It may be build with a single set, but it will require extra technic beams 7x5 with open centers.

The name of the robot - "Squmo" is derived from the ancient tradition of connecting two words to make on and hense - "Square sumo" because "Squmo". 

This one is also fast. It has assistant wheels, but only to keep the balance. It is built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 sets with the use of one additional Medium Motor. 

Join the course A robot a "day" keeps the questions awake where we will further discuss the motors, how to build them and what tasks to accomplish with them.

The demo programs for this motorcycle are here.

Building instructions for LEGO EV3 robot with color wheel that can be rotated through the medium motor. The color wheel is at the front of the robot while there is a color sensor at the back. The color sensor could read the color from another robot. The robot can be used in classes with students to play the telephone game.

An example of a program for controlling the robot could be found at https://www.fllcasts.com/programs/kmeat9-ev3-g-myblock-for-rotating-the-color-wheel-randomly

Building instructions for an EV3 LEGO Mindstorms Dump Truck. The back of the truck can be tilted through controlling the medium EV3 motor so that the load can be dumped at a desired location. Also, the robot has a color sensor to determine the type of load it is carrying. 

Winter might be far away or it might just be coming - depending of course on where you are in the world. But you can always spend a few hours having fun with a LEGO Mindstorms Snowmobile. A really challenging construction that requires good preparation, concentration and a lot of efforts to complete. Same is going to the mountain in the winter. But the reward at the end is worth it. 

We love tanks. You love tanks. Everybody loves tanks. Well, not exactly - more like everybody loves machines with chain treads because they are interesting, not that common, very easy to build and could tackle a lot of obstacles.

Building instructions for a LEGO Truck. The robot is presented as an Ammo Truck but it can be used for transporting various other objects, too. The construction has a rear drive with each of the rear wheels driven by a Large Lego Motor. The front wheels steer using a Medium Lego Motor. The Brick is placed at the front of the construction which gives the opportunity to easily attach different sensors, based on the task. 

Let's go fast. Large wheels on the back. A lot of torque, small wheels on the front, good aerodynamics. Here we go.

These are building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Drag Car. 

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Motorcycle, but this time with helper wheels. The helper wheels solve the problem of making turns with the robot. If the robot loses balance it will fall. The goal of the helper wheels is to make it easier for the robot to turn. Small modification, but really make a difference. 

Instructions for building a LEGO truck. We use a medium motor for steering and a large motor for driving one of the rear wheels.

Building instructions for a LEGO EV3 Robo-tank. The construction is incredibly simple, with an upright Brick, which makes it perfectly suitable for lessons with students.

This robot is for learning at home when you have time and energy. It is like having a motorcycle on your own - you spend a lot of time working on your motorcycle, you love it, it takes care, it takes patience. This robot has 300 steps in the building instructions. We've heard a lot of parents with students telling stories how their student could build anything from LEGO on their own. This motorcycle with a cart surely would be a challenge for them. Send us pictures when they are done.

Demo programs for this motorcycle are here.

"You need to step on three points to be stable". This is something you could directly see after building this marvellous, 270+ steps, extremely interesting Motorcycle with a side cart. Yes, we are proud of it. The robot is suitable for using it at home. The instructions for building it contain more than 270+ steps so it is a test for endurance, concentration, passion. The same way driving a motorcycle is. 

Or you could just step into the cart, drive along and enjoy the view while someone else is building the robot. Like a sibling or a parent.

It's fast. It's on two wheels. It's a motorcycle. And this one is built from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 sets with the use of one additional Medium Motor. If you have two medium motors, great. If you don't have you can build the  Handlebar - Chopper Motorcycle built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3, because it uses one large and one medium motor that are available in any EV3 set.

Currently, the motorcycle has no sensors. It's more of an exercise in construction, but if you attach sensors and think of a way to attach them send us a picture.

Building instructions for probably the simplest LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Motorcycle that you could think of. Can you think of a simpler? Build it and send it to us.

The motorcycle has one large and one medium motor. Turns are hard, but we will think of solutions for turns. There are also other motorcycles, more complex ones that you could build

• Handlebar - Chopper Motorcycle built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3

• Ninja - Sports Motorcycle built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3
