Building Instructions

This is a module that looks like a fish's head. It uses a touch sensor for a mouth and is otherwise purely cosmetic. The module is used in Piscis - a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Fish robot.

We wanted to be with the spirit of Halloween, so we decided to give you a little scene which you can build at home. These parts are ordinary and could be found anywhere. Here are links for the sets:

• Bat
• Ghost
• Pumpkin

Happy Halloween from the FLLCasts team!

The rotation frame requiers an NXT large double gear wheel that is not available at the EV3 set. You can use the instructions below to construct a similar mechanism from Mindstorms EV3 set

This robot is designed to easily lift a cup while still holding it upright. With its motor attached to the side of the hub, the robot can lift the cup to any angle you want. You could replace the LEGO cup and make it lift real cups with a few adjustments. Be careful around liquids though, the robot doesn't like beverages like you do!

This module is made to look like a head of a ram made with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It uses an ultrasonic sensor, which points down as if it is going to attack, as the eyes of the head. It can be combined with other modules to create the perfect ram robot!

This module is made to look and move like a real ship's sails! The module consists of two masts that are connected so that they move together. The back mast is connected to a medium motor that can move all sails and is also connected to a gyro sensor, that can detect if the whole ship is rotated. This module is used in Yolanda - LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Sailship robot.

Building instructions for this part of the BigDaddy competition robot

Zatty is the smaller sibling if Zat. Zatty is small and cute. It's a car on a frame with 4 small wheels and of course two mini figures riding in it or on it. Built from LEGO SPIKE Core set 45678 + LEGO SPIKE Expansion Set 45680 it was designed by my 7 years old daughter and then slightly improved by me and the colleagues.

Play time for a week: About an hour

During a competition a team of students had to build a robot that looks like a musician. This construction in front of the robot is a Trompet and it looks like Ane is playing some music. If you play music on the phone on the side it is really funny to watch it play.

This is the Coffee Pot, along with a coffee mug. It was 2 hours of fun

You know those constructions that you need to push or pull something and you get a cool chain reaction, right? Here are the building instructions of such a Chain Reaction built with LEGO Mindstorms 51515 Robot Inventor set. This construction was created to be used with the smallest Inventor robot Tricky and its Kick the ball attachment. The goal is to program the robot to kick the Mindstorms/Duplo ball, included in the set, so that the ball could push the lever and start the chain reaction.

You can find the LEGO set, with which this was built, by following this link.

You can find constructions created to play with Tricky, by following the links below:

1. Bowling Pins
2. Football Goal
3. Basketball hoop

This robot is named after the South Pole–Aitken Basin, the largest impact crater in the Solar System, located on the far side of the Moon.

Astronauts, get ready to enter lunar orbit! This robot is equipped with a holder for a camera or phone, allowing it to take a picture of the far side of the Moon. If your device does not fit, you can easily adjust the holder to suit your needs.

With its two motors, Aitken can move in both wide and narrow circles around the Moon to capture the perfect photo.

Are you a football fan? Here are the building instructions you'll need for the construction of the Football Goal, if you decide to play it with a Mindstorms 51515 Robot Inventor set. You'll also need to build the smallest robot Tricky with its Kick the ball attachment. The Mindstorms/Duplo ball is included in the set.

2 hours of fun on Sunday with the daughters. Each of them was taking turns, walking with them around the house and using them

You remember Mighty Coffee? Well, my wife is looking at me building Mighty Coffee and is like "Why can't we have a beer?"...yes, the world around me. At the end of the day we had a Mighty Coffee and MBEER and we realized that both of these are not appropriate for 6-10 years old, but nevertheless the children had a lot of fun with them. They were pouring coffee in the beer mug, then put the whole Mighty Coffee into the beer mug they played probably for about an hour. Built from LEGO SPIKE Core set 45678 + LEGO SPIKE Expansion Set 45680 this beer mug is just clean and beautiful. Only with blue frames. As an engineer I tried to construct it the first time with the children and then ask them to construct it without following instructions. Try it. It is like a puzzle. Build it the first time with the 3D Assembly Instruction and the second time without any instruction.

Play time for a week: ~1-2 hours in total.

This is the creation of my daughter. She said that this is a "Chicken" exhibited in a museum. Which is nice.
