This video tutorial is for the Tire Flip Mission from FIRST LEGO League 2020 RePlay robotics competition. Flip missions are always some of the most interesting and challenging. In this tutorial you would learn how to build an attachment and accomplish a mission that requires you to flip a part, like flipping a coin. Most of the complexity for this mission is in the attachment and not the programming, but this is also way it works perfectly, every single time.

In this video tutorial, we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 mission called Platooning Trucks. The goal is to connect the two mission models (trucks) to each other and then connect them both to the bridge. It's quite an interesting mission as it involves three mission models.

Instead of aligning forward as in the previous tutorial we felt there is a need to demonstrate how we could align backward when moving with the robot. This is not a rare case. The attachments of the robot are generally at the front of the robot and especially during FIRST LEGO League competitions the robot must move backward very often. It is helpful to have in your toolbox the ability to align backward with the robot.

In this video tutorial, we demonstrate one of the unique missions of the FIRST LEGO League competitions - we must carry a rather large object from base an leave it on the field. This takes some considerations as other missions must be accomplished before that.

In this video tutorial, we push two of the mission models with a pinless active attachment with gears. The goal is to push the mission models after the blue lines. This attachment is interesting as it demonstrates a non-straightforward idea of how we can push the mission models. We explain the Scratch program and how we use the motion sensors - you will learn how to turn to a specific angle by using the motion sensor.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial on an active, auto-correcting, locking, and aligning attachment that accomplishes the FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 Cargo Connect Large Delivery mission. The difference, as compared to the previous solution to the mission, is that we now use a much more consistent and reliable robot.

From programs that rely entirely on proportional line following to those that use a PID-type program where "P" stands for the proportional line following component, proportional line following has proven to be a core mechanic in line following competitions.

Here, we discuss the effects of applying this method to the two-state duck-following algorithm.

While "multistate line following" can describe a variety of algorithms, this tutorial will cover its implementation using the ducky line-following method.

This is the most basic line-following method, commonly known as the "ducky" line-following method.

Line following is a very common competition category. Here's how you can get started with it!

Here's one way to program using a color sensor!

What is a color? How does our robot detect it? Learn that here!

Have you ever wondered if your robot can make decisions? Here's how we can make that happen!

Have you ever wondered if your robot can make decisions? Here's how we can achieve that!

There are many cases in programming where you want something to repeat indefinitely. Here's how to achieve that!

This is one of the first sensor blocks you'll learn! Here's how we use it!

Reversity - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot with two motors in reverse directions has two motors placed in opposite directions! If we just put a block that moves them both forward, the robot spins in place. So, how do we move it forward?
