A small turn creates the clearance needed for a clean lift in Mission 13: Statue Rebuild. In this FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition tutorial, the Smaller Pancake box robot powers an active lifting attachment to raise the statue from the right base.

The mechanism itself is simple - a drive gear rotates a lever to lift the statue. The challenge lies in the starting position. This video shows how the positioning guide sets the robot at the correct launch angle and why a short forward turn gives the statue enough room to rise freely without catching on the mission model.

FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED with SCRATCH - Solutions and Review with Smaller Pancake Box Robot from LEGO Education SPIKE Prime
The FIRST LEGO League 2025-2026 UNEARTHED competition challenges teams to recover artifacts, work around delicate structures, and complete several actions efficiently. This course explores practical solutions using the compact Smaller Pancake box robot.
You’ll study a variety of mission strategies and attachment designs, including active and passive mechanisms, gears, hooks, rubber bands, gravity-powered actions, and alignment techniques. The tutorials explain not only what the robot does, but also why each design and programming decision improves the run.
Each main tutorial is paired with a 10 out of 10 reliability test, showing how consistently the solution performs and how details such as starting position, tire grip, attachment preparation, and mission-model movement can affect the result.
To support fair play, our complete mission solutions are published only after the season has ended. Before starting the course, we recommend reviewing the FIRST LEGO League robot game guide.
