TIPS/COMMENTS: * USEFUL: p. 65 *or* p. 69 of "basic" instructions booklet (depending on version) -- has 1:1 image of axles and their numbers/lengths! * NOTE: remember, gather the pieces for the step, THEN build the step; these "feel" harder to me than the lego-booklet steps; * BEWARE - pix of axle-pin-w-friction look a LOT like pin-w-friction! issues with certain STEPS: * all is fine until STEP 8 -- where the BIG problem may be: our kits have NO axles of size 7! ...CAN this robot work with a kluged axle of size 8? NOT YET KNOWN (switched out my tester brick with another teams, it kept dying during my tests... was it the axle or the brick?) * STEP 9: requires a part we DON'T have in our kits! ...I tried to kuge with 2 axle joiners perpendicular instead, AND AM ACTIVELY INTERESTED in better solutions! * STEP 11: we don't have a 3 axle with stop -- using a plain 3 axle, and hoping that's OK * STEP 12: use half the pieces on one side, and half on the other STEP 13: ditto STEP 14: ditto, and need a 5th size-7 beam, provided from spare parts; * STEP 15: need a 6th size-7 beam, provided from spare parts; * also: put size-7 beam on "far" side, pin in TOP hole, and put size-9 beam on "near" side, pin in 3rd hole from top as shown. ...OK to STEP 24. * STEP 24: need *2* more size-11 beams than are in the kits; * 2 more are provided from spare parts * use half the pieces on one side, and half on the other * STEP 25: need more size-9 beams; 2 more are provided from spare parts. * use half the pieces on one side, and half on the other * STEP 26: needs a 4-pin-2-hole piece not in kits, provided from spare parts; * still no size-7 axles, trying to use size-8 axles from spare parts; I *think* that part works; * STEP 28: didn't use size-4 -- maybe because used size-8 in step 26? * STEP 29: put an extra axle joiner OUTSIDE of 3rd wheel instead? * another small wheel IS provided from spare parts, so you DO now have 3 ...and I'll post the code soon...
