Motor

The motor blocks make only 1 motor to move.

(In my case, I connect Motor A)

-> -> Negative number or counter-clockwise: is UP

-> -> Positive number or clockwise: is DOWN

We are using medium motor. Motor connected to Port A

The 2 codes beside each other are the same. They do the same thing.

Or it can also be:

BLUE2

Motor A moves 250 degrees counter-clockwise(up) at the speed of 75

Notice how fast the motor move upward.

!!! Because this motor is placed like that, counter-clockwise/negative numbers make the motor move up.

Motors moving DOWN

BLUE3

Or it can also be:

BLUE4

Motor A moves 250 degrees clockwise(down) at the speed of 75%

Because this motor is placed like that, clockwise/positive numbers make the motor move down.

Clockwise is:

Moves in the direction of the clock

Rotations with the clock

⬅ Look at the difference ➡

Counter-clockwise is:

It moves as if time goes back, going to the opposite direction as the clock.

Motors moving Up slowly

BLUE5

Motor A moves 180 degrees counter-clockwise(up) at the speed of 15%

Notice that the degrees are less. This is because the motor cannot close fully due to the object its grabbing.

I know this might be confusing, but specifically in this robot, UP will be negative number.

Motors moving DOWN slowly

BLUE6

Motor A moves 180 degrees -clockwise(down) at the speed of 15%

You can try with a faster speed, see what happens to the object.

I know this might be confusing, but specifically in this robot, DOWN will be positive number.

Challenge: grab and turn

BLUE-CHALL1

You first grab (with motor A) the red container, turn left, and let go of the object.

Hint:

The speed for motor A is 20%

The speed for the wheels is 50%
