This attachment is designed for the Smaller Pancake - SPIKE Prime Box Robot and completes Mission 01: Surface Brushing in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition. It pushes and pulls the Soil Deposit to release and extract the Brush.
This attachment is designed for the Smaller Pancake - SPIKE Prime Box Robot and completes Mission 02: Map Reveal and Mission 03: Mineshaft Explorer in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition. It pushes two of the topsoil sections aside and lifts the third to extract it. The robot then moves backward and raises the rail, allowing the minecart to travel onto the other team’s field.
This attachment is designed for the Smaller Pancake - SPIKE Prime Box Robot and completes Mission 11: Angler Artifacts in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition. It aligns the robot with the Angler Artifacts mission model and rotates the gear mechanism to raise both the artifacts and the flagpole.
This attachment is designed for the Smaller Pancake - SPIKE Prime Box Robot and is used to complete Mission 05: Who Lived Here?, Mission 06: Forge, and Mission 07: Heavy Lifting in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition. The attachment positions the robot accurately in front of the mission models and interacts with each mechanism in sequence. In one run, it presses the Forge lever to release the stones, activates the Who Lived Here? model, and pushes a stone into the Right base. In a separate run, it pushes or captures the Millstone and transports it to the Right base.
Learn how to complete Mission 15: Site Marking and Mission 12: Salvage Operation in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition using the Smaller Pancake box robot and this passive attachment.
Discover why this solution achieves a perfect 10 out of 10 successful runs in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition. Using the Smaller Pancake box robot together with this passive attachment, we analyze the design choices that make the completion of Mission 15: Site Marking and Mission 12: Salvage Operation remarkably consistent.
Four jobs are packed into one compact run for Mission 01: Surface Brushing in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition. The Smaller Pancake box robot uses the Surface Brushing attachment to settle against the model, clear both soil deposits, capture the brush, and return to base.
Ten consecutive attempts reveal far more than a single polished run. In this FLL 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition reliability test, the Smaller Pancake box robot and the Surface Brushing attachment take on Mission 01.
One attachment, two mission models, and a lot happening in only a few seconds. During the FLL UNEARTHED season, the Smaller Pancake box robot uses the M02 and M03 attachment to reveal the map, secure the third topsoil section, and send the minecart to the opposing team's field.
Can a motor-free mechanism repeat a multi-mission run without adjustments? This 10 out of 10 tutorial follows the Smaller Pancake box robot and the Map Reveal and Mineshaft Explorer attachment through M02 and M03 in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition.
For Mission 11: Angler Artifacts in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition, the Smaller Pancake box robot does not simply drive into the model. With the geared Angler Artifacts attachment, it pivots into position, meshes with the mission gears, and raises both the flag and the artifact before heading toward the right base.
Small variations in the approach do not always have to change the score. In this 10 out of 10 test from the FLL 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition, the Smaller Pancake box robot repeats Mission 11: Angler Artifacts with the same geared attachment ten times.
Rather than forcing the scale down, this solution lets gravity finish the job. In Mission 10: Tip the Scales from the FLL UNEARTHED season, the Smaller Pancake box robot uses a passive pinless attachment to lift the green cover just enough for the scale to tip, then catches the pan as it reverses.
Fast runs are only valuable when they survive repetition. This 10 out of 10 tutorial tests the Smaller Pancake box robot and the Tip the Scales attachment on Mission 10 in the FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition.
This is not the usual straight trip from base to mission model. For Mission 7: Heavy Lifting in the FLL UNEARTHED season, the Smaller Pancake box robot deliberately travels outside the mat, uses the table wall as a reference, and reaches the Millstone with an active pinless attachment.
Mission 7 looks playful in a single run; ten attempts show how much it depends on the table. In this FLL 2025 UNEARTHED competition test, the Smaller Pancake box robot uses the Heavy Lifting attachment after aligning against the wall.
Two neighboring missions become one efficient run in this FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition tutorial. The Smaller Pancake box robot carries the combined M05-M07 attachment to release the ore from Mission 6: Forge, raise Mission 5: Who Lived Here, and move the blocks toward the edge for later use.
Can a run be 100% successful and still leave room for improvement? In this 10 out of 10 tutorial for the FLL UNEARTHED season, we evaluate the Smaller Pancake box robot with the shared M05-M07 attachment on Mission 5 and Mission 6.
This run asks the robot to think several missions ahead. In the FLL 2025 UNEARTHED competition, the Smaller Pancake box robot crosses almost the entire field with a multi-purpose M14 and M15 attachment, places the Mission 15: Site Marking flag, collects the opposing team's minecart, and brings it with previously collected artifacts to the left base for Mission 14: Forum.
Long runs are an excellent test of consistency. In this ten-attempt tutorial from the FIRST LEGO League 2025–2026 UNEARTHED competition, we put the Smaller Pancake box robot and the M14 and M15 transport attachment through one of the longest runs on the field.
Sometimes the most effective solutions are also the most straightforward. In Mission 14: Forum from the FIRST LEGO League UNEARTHED season, the Smaller Pancake box robot uses a lightweight pinless attachment to deliver the collected artifacts safely into the scoring area.
