How should an instructor use this course when working with students and a group of students in school

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

How to organize the different robots and group of students when working on lifting the robot.

Don't limit yourself to the box and think of different ways to lift the robot. 

The next step of lifting a robot to a mission model is to try to use a rack.

Build a rack and try to lift the robot with this rack. 

Building a rack is a very important skill during competitions. You should try to build one, learn how to use it and have it as a tool for you next robots. But for this particular BoxRobot, we will not continue with a rack.

The final way for lifting our box robot is by using a scissors mechanism. In this Episode, we would discuss the benefits and advantages of this mechanism.

Before moving forward here is the simple task of building the mechanism and extending the legs. Extend the legs to fifteen LEGO units. 

In this tutorial, we would drive the scissors mechanism and there are a number of rules that we must follow

Experiment with changing the orientation and direction of gear wheels. Here are part of the tasks that you should complete before moving forward with the course.

It this episode we would present you with our attachment for lifting the robot. 

One of the very common problems with the LEGO Mindstorms and LEGO Technic Gear wheels is then a tooth is skipped. In this video, I would like us to discuss this challenge and how do we solve it.

Here is the task for adding a beam on both sides of every gear wheel in your attachment.

The most stressed wheel in our system is the driven wheel. We've already fixed the problem with the driving wheel of the scissor mechanism and now it is time to look at the drive LEGO Mindstorms wheel.
