Learn Python for Mindstorms (LEGO 51515) Part 2: Motor Control Tutorial

[@amberhaake275]

I like how you have a series of these because most videos I watch have only one

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Glad you like the series! Garry

Thanks for zooming in onto the code this time. I wonder if Tricky is able to trigger Mission 11 in Masterpiece. It certainly can lift things relatively high, but can it also apply enough power to lift heavier Mission models? Perhaps a counterweight could play the trick?

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

I recommend checking out our heavy lifting mechanism for the RePLAY season: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6LGiJeOhqhqadksi=FVTk5rv1EtgsvbvT good luck with Masterpiece! Garry

General question do you know how to find the position of the robot on the FLL task surface and how to implement it in the code

[@密謀密谋]

Request: Please show how to build and program a PID self-balancing bot using a single motor and parts contained in the "51515" Mindstorm Robot Inventor set-box.

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

A single motor challenge! I like it 👍 Thanks for the suggestion! Garry

[@jfbricks5073]

Great tutorial! you explain everything very clearly ,and easy to understand!

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Thanks! Glad the video helps 😊 Garry

Por favor. Eu moro no Brasil. Estou tentando aprender pyton como hobby, e não consigo achar nada com o que eu estou tentando fazer. Quero o carrinho com dois motores e um sensor de distancia. O carrinho ao encontrar obstáculo, olha para a direita e depois para a esquerda. Depois escolhe o caminho maior e segue.

51515 set arrived catching up fast. Is there code line to stop the program running at the moment I have to use the red button (lower left of the screen) to stop the program before I can run it again with and alteration. It would be neater to have a line "end program"?

Great tutorial! Is it possible to pair more then two motors for the Movement Metods because I will build a car with two motors in the front to move the car left, right, forward and backward and a third motor in the back of the car only to second the forward an backword movement?

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Hi! You can definitely build a custom drivetrain but you will need to make a custom movement code to account for the additional motors. Garry

[@rainerstudicus7460]

@@CreatorAcademyAustralia Thank you for your quick answer. Can you give me a tip how to do this?

[@ommannex]

Great Tutorial! Do you have any lists of phyton syntax for robot inventor 51515

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Great suggestion! We will look into it. Maybe we'll make some documentation one day :) Garry

@@CreatorAcademyAustralia hey, do have the documentation ?

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

@@samanmatin4876 Hi, the Python documentation is in the Knowledge Base on the right hands side of the app when you're coding in Python. Garry

Great tutorial! Do you mind to share the code please?

Good Job!

where i find instructions to build a cube robot with spike or lego inventor

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Hi! Search for PrimeCuber and you'll find it :) Garry

[@RomanRichter420]

Thanks for tutorial! Very clear code explanation! :D I have one question about lifting arm, so it's fine if I can't get lifting arm to hit absolute 0? I played around with cogs, but can't hit 0, only around ~350 degrees. (also motor slightly overturns after lowering arm)

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Hi! That is a limitation of the hardware. The error will also change based on load forces like what you've described. In the past, we have run the 'shortest path to angle code' twice to get the angle closer to the target angle, but there's no foolproof solution. Garry

[@RomanRichter420]

Hi. I watched your tutorial and I'am really impressed. I bought 51515 for my son to teach him python and robotics but i can't find Mindstorms software for PC, I'd downloaded from microsoft store but it's useless nothing work! We are using a tablet for now but this is really bulky, it would be nice if you would add a link where from we can download the Mindstorms software, that would be really helpful for us, best regards and keep going your great work. thanks.

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Hi! I use the version downloaded from the Microsoft store, if you have any problems running it I would suggest trying to contact LEGO support on the LEGO.com website. Good luck! Garry

[@hamer7884]

@@CreatorAcademyAustralia thank you . I will try contact to Lego. my downloaded from Microsoft is completely empty. tnx & have nice day.

How would I use tank move to go forward turn and then backwards turn?

[@CreatorAcademyAustralia]

Hi! Simply use the move tank methods, you can find them under Motor Pairs in the knowledge base tab.

[@vSakamoto]

@@CreatorAcademyAustralia thank you :D

[@EugenePenfold]

how do you move backwards
