This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial demonstrating the consistency with which the Kufar robot accomplishes M12, M13, and M15 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge season. Kufar is an out-of-the-box LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot, meaning you don’t need to connect attachments—just slide the brick into the attachment frames.

In this run, the robot collects the mini-figures using a rubber band mechanism, rotates the chicken with a gear mechanism, and pushes and pulls the M13 Craft Creator mission model.

In this video tutorial, we focus on accomplishing M04, M14, and M15 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge competition. We use the MiniBox, a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime box robot equipped with several attachments. The goal of the robot is to deliver the LEGO mini figures to their designated place and then press down the M03 platform to trigger the immersive experience for the viewer in the mission model.

In this video tutorial, we take a closer look at completing M04, M05, M14, and M15 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge competition. We use the MiniBox, a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime box robot equipped with several attachments. The robot needs to accurately drop the mini-figures and the Masterpiece mission model, then rotate the Augmented Reality Statue to reveal its experience—efficiently and predictably.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M11 Sonar Discovery and M12 Feed the Whale of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot). The run uses a combined two-part attachment for maximum efficiency. The front section is designed to drop the krill into the Whale for M12, using a stationary beam to open the whale’s mouth and an angled beam to tip the krill container so they fall inside. Wheels are added as counterweights to prevent the container from opening during movement.

The rear section operates the sonar rotation for M11, using a chain-driven mechanism to transfer power from the robot to the mission model. A hooked beam is integrated at the end, allowing it to easily catch the yellow part of the sonar for rotation. This combined design allows the robot to complete both missions in one smooth, coordinated run without swapping attachments.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M05 Angler Fish, M09 Unexpected Encounter, M10 Send over the Submersible, and M11 Sonar Discovery of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot). The run uses three attachments in sequence: an aligning attachment at the start to reduce initial inaccuracies, a front attachment for solving M05 and M10 while collecting krill, reef segments, and the water sample, and a back attachment for solving M11, delivering the unknown creature for M09, and collecting plankton and seabed samples.

The front attachment is particularly interesting in this configuration because it integrates two color sensors and one motor directly onto the attachment itself. These sensors are used to align the robot to the black line near M10, while the aligning attachment at the start ensures a precise launch position.

This version of the big run takes on significantly more missions in a single attempt than a standard sequence, which naturally comes at the cost of reduced accuracy. In the current FLL competition format—where only your best score from three attempts is counted—this trade-off can be highly strategic. A run that works perfectly even just once can yield a massive point boost, making this kind of high-reward, lower-consistency approach a potential game-changer for teams willing to take the risk.

This 10 out of 10 video tutorial focuses on the flawless accomplishment of M05 Angler Fish, M09 Unexpected Encounter, M10 Send over the Submersible, and M11 Sonar Discovery of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot.

The run uses a combination of aligning, front, and back attachments to execute multiple tasks in one run, including a rotation transfer system using a single long axle for M11, early execution of M10 for a strategic edge, and sensor-based alignment for precision. Despite the reduced per-run accuracy due to the mission count, this method ensures that when the run works, it secures an exceptionally high score.

This video tutorial focuses on accomplishing M13 Change Shipping Lanes, and partially M09 Unexpected Encounter and M12 Feed the Whale of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using the Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot).

In this run, the robot flips the shipping lane model, collects the small Krill, and retrieves the Unknown Creature from the field by pushing on the mission model. These tasks are executed with precision to ensure that the robot not only scores the primary mission points but also safely returns the collected elements back to base. The sequence is optimized to minimize travel time between missions while maintaining accuracy and control over the robot’s attachments.

We use a pinless, three-in-one design attachment for completing multiple missions in one run. At the front, an angled rubber band mechanism handles M13 Change Shipping Lanes, allowing the robot to launch straight from base without extra positioning.

On one side, a passive curtain mechanism like a cage captures the single Krill for M12 Feed the Whale. On top, a secure basket catches the Unknown Creature from M09 Unexpected Encounter after a push with the robot’s back. The attachment is optimized for quick and reliable mission execution without additional motors.

This video tutorial focuses on solving M05, M09, collecting samples for M14, 3 Krill for M12, and Reef Segments for M03 of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge using Nautiq box robot (a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot).

The programming process for accomplishing M05 Angler Fish, M09 Unexpected Encounter, M14 Sample Collection, M12 Feed the Whale, and M03 Coral Reef of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge is streamlined, making it easier to manage even in a large multi-mission run. The design of the two-part attachment system significantly influences how the robot moves, simplifying the code and reducing complexity.

The program is surprisingly simple for such a comprehensive run, with the robot performing a series of maneuvers to collect, deliver, and push mission elements. For maximum accuracy, it uses gyro turns, slow acceleration, and reduced speed in trickier spots to maintain control. By letting the attachments guide much of the interaction, the programming remains clean and reliable, enabling the robot to handle multiple scoring tasks efficiently in a single trip.
