LEGO quad-brick FlexPicker
Hi, all!
This wasn't programmed in RobotC, which is why I'm putting it in general discussions.
I built it about a year and a half ago, when I was 11 and 12. That is to say, I started building it when I was 11, and had a birthday in that time and finished it when I was 12.
Here's the video:
Sorry, I would say more, but I gotta go!

Not a chance. Okay, maybe I could translate the NXT-G to RobotC, but I wouldn't be able to test it. This was torn apart over a year ago. When I build another FlexPicker, it will be much better than this. And in RobotC.

Re: LEGO quad-brick FlexPicker
I might start another one around - I don't know - November? December? I've got a set of contests coming up soon, and those robots aren't gonna build themselves. Yet

This is not a programming related question but how many compressors are in the machine?
I once translated from NXT-g to ROBOTC, and it was fun, but it was like translating Greek to Latin!

Re: LEGO quad-brick FlexPicker
The entire design phase I just kept changing it as I needed to. Never really finished until it worked for the end product.
