What I found useful about this video was the fact that a very simple bot with very simple attachments were used to solve some missions. For a rookie rookie team that is struggling to understand basic concepts, this video can inspire them with the knowledge that their bot does not need to be of complex, box style, pinless attachment design to feel like they have accomplished something. Obviously the robot and single mission style is not a FLL winning strategy, but it certainly can inspire a bunch 3rd graders to see what is possible. They still have to figure out how to build their own version, program it, and improve it. THAT is the win. I don't think anyone believes that this video gave away secrets that allowed a team to make it to Regionals, let alone FLL Worlds. Used correctly, this video is a good thing; anything abused, is just that: Abused.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I agreed with every word. I'm glad you got the point of the video to help inspire young teams. I had a student look at a video with a very complex robot and he said, "That video made me feel lame." I don't want students feel like they have to be complex to feel good about themsleves.
Personally I'm a middle school student myself (I've been in lego robotics for 4 years). I like ur videos because if I don't get a mission, this helps me understand them. I would/have never copied off you but I have took inspiration on how u solved the missions (of course still adding my own ideas to it). Again your videos help me get a deeper understanding of the missions so thank you!
I appreciate you videos and am encouraged by your solutions. As a coach with zero experience and zero training from my district- you are the only glimmer of hope that I have as a coach. I appreciate having the ability to watch your ideas and understand the simplicity of some of the missions. Please focus on the positive and know you are appreciated.
Teaching Science I am in the exact same situation as you- zero experience trying to figure out this whole process! Good luck to you and thanks for these video Mr. Hino - they help all of us rookie coaches.
I really appreciate all the videos as I am a coach of a brand new team and these videos give us a starting point to explore how to do the missions. Thanks and keep up the good work.
I love your videos. I love that you show how simple things can be done. I try to stress simplicity to my robotics group, but they have grand ideas, which is totally fine. I rarely find kids who watch your videos ever copy the simplicity. They don't think like that - they like bigger and better. There is much more to the competition than just the robot game, so to those who are saying you are solving the missions for kids just strictly for points really don't know kids. They will want to try their own attachments and ideas over copying someone else's. Keep up the good work Mr. Hino!
I have no problem with showing simple (obvious) solutions using a simple robot. Very few teams are going to use any of these ideas, and those that do probably need a video to accomplish anything. Getting a box of parts and being told you need to build and program a robot to solve the missions is overwhelming. An experienced coach knows that you need to present the team with simple challenges they can complete to gain experience and grow confidence and build up to solving more complex problems. Many (most) teams don't have an experienced coach. For a rookie coach and a rookie team these videos are probably more comforting than educational. They may show a solution for a mission, but the valuable thing they show is that you don't need a fancy robot or fancy attachments to solve any of the missions. They make solving the missions an approachable problem.
Hey Mr. Hino! I just realized how much simpler 3D Printing could've been because of this video. Of course, it's too late now, because our team, Dream Team, is already at regionals, so it's not as if we could turn a huge gear mechanism that works maybe half the time, to something so simple.... :( eeither way, we're a rookie team, and I'm glad we've made it this far. I can't wait to participate next year!
Thank you Mr. Hino, I do find these examples helpful for rookie teams (I'm coaching my third rookie team this year) to see that they can complete missions with a simple robot. From the other coaches objections, I do understand the objections; however since you are not giving building instructions or programming instructions, there is still a lot for teams to discover on their own. I'm not sure how watching what a teacher created is different from watching what student teams create? Most of the experienced teams that post have complex robots and for a first year team, I think it's best to start with a small robot and smaller attachments = less room for error.
For M12 satellite orbits, I use same attachment but two grey beams for two satellites at once for 16 and did a combination of bringing back the satellite to the two lines and reverses to do observatory
The second cater crossing mission is not allowed. The rules says that the robot or a module most completely cross the area INDEPENDENTLY. This is one of the missions my team is struggling on the most. Other wise really good job!
Mr. Hino -- As a middle school LEGO Robotics coach myself for over 12 years, I appreciate your enthusiasm for teaching students about robotics, but I STRONGLY OBJECT to your efforts to explicitly show students how to solve the competition missions, instead of encouraging students to discover solutions on their own. The role of the coach should be to teach skills, not solve the competition for them. I firmly believe that having the students do ALL the mission problem solving is a crucial part of their learning experience, so that they can take full ownership of what they have learned, to know what works and what doesn't work, and how to apply that knowledge during the competition season. By providing "adult solutions" in TH-cam you are encouraging students to exactly copy your solutions and skip over a critically important trial and error part of the learning and discovery process that FLL promotes. And this short-changes the students who copy your designs in order to improve their robot scores in the competition. It would be of much greater value if you would publish skill-building videos that were not tied specifically to any particular 2018 missions. Or let your students figure out their designs on their own, and let the students publish them online. Or publish your own "expert" solutions after the competition season ends.
Thanks for your opinion Dave. I don't ever advertise that teams/students should copy my robot or program. My goal in the videos are to show how the model, robot, and the program work to get the points. My team knows I load these videos on TH-cam and have never copied any of them because they know I only show individual missions and they combine missions. They also have far more complex robots than I do so, thus it wouldn't help them out. As a coach, I do exactly what you stated which is to allow them to problem solve for themselves what missions to do, how to build their robot, and how to tackle problems that arise. I guess if people don't want to see how missions are done, they won't come on TH-cam to watch.
Much more can be done with a simple robot, some constructions don't need motors, so you can make a combination of more missions.. I agree, this video is useful for rookie teams, but with one motor you can do much more missions, but you can get ideas from this.
Hello Mr.Hino. I am trying to learn coding so my school can have a robotics team. Do you have any sources to help me learn so I can teach my students. I have played around with an ev3 but I can never get it to do the exact same thing 2x. Like if I run something that works next time it misses it barely. What am I doing wrong.
Mr. Hino, I was wondering how you are able to keep your robots so on course? Ours always have a tendency to veer of course no matter what we do to them, any help would be appreciated.
I’m not the guy in the video, but I do have some advice. The problem is probably with the robot build itself. I am not saying that it was constructed wrong. What I mean is when you program your robot, it will not automatically adjust to things like the wheels being at a different point on the axis or there being a bump on the map from the floor. Even if you program the robot to adjust to these problems, it is still very easy to push in the wheel a little or adjust a wire, which can affect the weight and balance of the robot. I myself experienced this very problem during my own competition last year. I was twisting the wheel anxiously, and unknowingly changed the wheel’s orientation. This made the entire program fail, and my team dropped from third place to tying for ninth.
I do first lego leage and it is amaizing you get to pragram build attachments an work together to salve problem i recemend joining the first lego leage. It is also a great opportunity to make friends
YOU GUYS ARE SO GONNA WIN!!! Good job! That was literally incredible :D My only suggestion was you should speed up the robot, You only have about 2 minutes to do it all, Once you guys do that... You'll be unstoppable :0
hello , I'm involved in the contest . i have a question , in Extraction task (M5) when I arrive to the task and i do the programming the robot To wrap to the right didn’t do that ! I tried more than once but did not work ! and I put rotation sensor didn’t work too ! do you know what The problem , and you can’t help me?
Hi Mr. Hino...thanks for the great videos. How do you keep your missions from moving om the map? Ours move causing us trouble completing some missions like observatory, crater crossing etc.
We have a similar design robot but the wheel motors are inconsistent with driving in sync (veering right, sometimes left.) Slowing down has helped a little but it is a problem. Any advice? Thanks! Great video.
I would consider giving you advice with a gyrosensor however, my team would not consider that good advice. We used a gyrosensor last year and it worked great at our qualifier. However, when we went to Regionals, our gyrosensor messed up all of our programs. We thought we might have issues and took 5-10 gyrosensors. They all did not work. I would offer adice of maybe a color sensor. We use a color sensor that helps us get the Escape Velocity. Other teams use roller guides against the sides of the board and steer into the wall to help them go straight. However, for missions where neither idea might help, possibly extra pieces on your attachments that allow fogiving maneuvers could help. For example when we were trying to pick up Gerhart, we would have 3 axles that would pick him instead of just using one.
If you are planning to use this plan for the competition, it has a high chance it won’t work. You only have 2 Minutes 30 Seconds and if you keep going back to base you waste a lot of time. I suggest you add another motor and build attachments on that too,
Really important warning your food production was built incorrectly. Based on the mission model building instructions the green is supposed to end and turn into tan by the time it passes the bottom dual lock most southern dual lock.
Takes too long for the competition. The vid is about 7mins long! -25 secs is still about 6 mins and 35 secs. you only get 2 mins and 30 secs in the real competition. Really helpful though.
This is not impressive at all... anyone with enough time on their hands can do this the main thing is that at the table you only get 2:30 min to do as many missions as you can, this video is over 7 minutes long. Thats not even including the time it takes to swich out stuff on the robot to do the next mission
I'm not sure where you guys are getting that anyone said that all these missions were done in 2:30. The title just says almost all the missions completed.
Hlo sir...I am JAYASURYA from India.....i had participated in fll Lego league for three times ... please provide me a kit .... please requesting you all
You are the millionth person to think that the title somehow said that all these missions were done in 2 and a half minutes. The video just shows the missions being done.
What I found useful about this video was the fact that a very simple bot with very simple attachments were used to solve some missions.

Suggest me best lego robotics kit which is available in the market right now? Please
Well, because the EV3 Mindstorms Kit has been retired, I'd go with Spike Prime. Here's the link. amzn.to/3S7KmUg
can you give me a link to the song?
Thanks guy this is very useful and easy !
Mr hino how do you make sure that it goes straight? Do you use a go straight program or a gyro censor?
The second cater crossing mission is not allowed. The rules says that the robot or a module most completely cross the area INDEPENDENTLY. This is one of the missions my team is struggling on the most. Other wise really good job!
Hey Mr. Hino! Can you give the building instructions of this robot please ? Have a nice quarantine days.
Yep...here you go. Go to both the Driving Base and Medium Motor Driving Base for instructions. Thank you!!
Ooops...here's the link. education.lego.com/en-us/support/mindstorms-ev3/building-instructions#program-expansion
Just went to our first FLL Into Orbit Competition!
Really? Nice? Where do you compete...if you can say?

Do you know Mr.Chow miller
I think what he was trying to do is help others but so that they can have a better understanding
I'm like no other muddle scooter I m twenny eiight
respond with no u huh??
Also with the lander touchdown one don’t you need to make it land in the circle not just pick it up?
You could have it drop into the circle. Very tough to do without it separating.
Much more can be done with a simple robot, some constructions don't need motors, so you can make a combination of more missions.. I agree, this video is useful for rookie teams, but with one motor you can do much more missions, but you can get ideas from this.
At 1:26 it's not allowed... You need all the objects pushing prresure on the mission to go over the mission

I have played around with an ev3 but I can never get it to do the exact same thing 2x. Like if I run something that works next time it misses it barely. What am I doing wrong.
Maybe it's not the coding but if the robot is placed in the same spot as the first time.
In the crater crossing all the robot has to cross (like on the first time you show it) or it can ve just an extension (like the second time)
Mr. Hino, I was wondering how you are able to keep your robots so on course? Ours always have a tendency to veer of course no matter what we do to them, any help would be appreciated.

Maybe you could try combing them so that you can get the same amount of points in 2:30. Just a suggestion.
I wasn't trying for 2:30. I was just individually trying all of them.

Did that happend at m08 was accident ??
Space mans' mount for space walk was built incorrectly, grey bit is supposed to be on the bottom.
Great! Everyone good luck!
Can I get a robot design robot and extra parts?
Nice, but the programs take too much time
Is just join each programs...
i agree

fyi, the lander lock is built wrong. It should be at a 45 degree angle, but yours is at a 90
how do i program m01 please help ive been stuck here for a while and my team is upstairs
send me a friend request on facebook me and my team whould help you
How do you build the educator robot? Are there any build instructions?

LEGORobotics Mr. Hino Ok thank you very much!!
bro legend freakin legend
The only thing or team does difrently is we make bots that are huge, but do most of the chalanges in the alloted time, not 7 min
We did this competition today. Took the 2 place. We are in the semifinal🤘
Nice Job!! Congrats!!
Life Awesome! Can you send us the codes please
is it legal to interchange the design of the robot
What exactly do you mean by interchange?
And how do you chance it within 2 min? 🙂😬
When is the into orbit comps
what motor did you use?
Medium motor
3:40 that is the only thing my team can beat you. We got to the orange area with returning to the base
Thats awesome. You have a simple and effective attachment. Any instructions on how that is built?
these are nice ideas they use less space and help more than
probably yuo can win 1st place in designing
If you are planning to use this plan for the competition, it has a high chance it won’t work. You only have 2 Minutes 30 Seconds and if you keep going back to base you waste a lot of time. I suggest you add another motor and build attachments on that too,
LOL!!! Yeah, I know. These videos are just for examples. I would never have my teams go that slow or do many individual missions in real competitions
They can solve some not all
I wish I knew about these type of things and could have done them as a kid.
What am I talking about, I still want to do them!
we are doing this as a competition in March
Good luck to you and your team!!!
Which are you using in This video?
Which what?
The Extraction is M05
very nice good jobgood luck on comp day
Really important warning your food production was built incorrectly. Based on the mission model building instructions the green is supposed to end and turn into tan by the time it passes the bottom dual lock most southern dual lock.
Wow impressive!
7 MINUTES LONG! THE COMP IS ONLY 2
this makes me sad, as my team just lost our qualifiers tournament because of how poorly our robot performed
fait une video pour le program
awesome at it
I found this useful but can you make a tutorial please?
Can you be more specific to a tutorial on what exactly?
programs can not fit in 2 mins
Never claimed it could...
Are you gonna participate
In what? This year's FLL Competition? Yes, we are.
great,greetings from uruguay
you did not do mission two!
The Solar Panel Array was done.
I wish my school has those tables put Lego Mindstorms stuff
Nice man a XD for you
You are not allowed to touch the bot I thought
In base u are
Random Science you are, only while it’s in the base
3:35 THAT'S A PENLTY!!!! YOU CAN'T TOUCH YOUR ROBOT OUT OF HOME BASEEEEEEEEEEE!!! PENLTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL!!! I know. However, if I didn't pick the robot up, you wouldn't have seen the axle.
True.
I competed in this. My schools first time 7th in Toronto East
this is the meme strat

could you maybe send me your code to look at and observe
You must do that in 2:30 minutes
Yes, I know. The video just shows the many missions that can be done.
Can this is chinese?

Meanwhile, my team is still arguing about the team name.....
Hang in there...
LEGORobotics Mr. Hino Do you think it’s fine if our coaches help us build the missions but we build the robot and program it?
Do you mean is it okay for your coaches to tell you what missions to do? That should be up to you and your team to decide.
respect
You need it to go faster
Hello my friend .... can help us with programming to train our students. have a good day
thanks
can not be awesome troll like they did that is very impressive I take off the worker
creeperman I don't get what you said, but it is completely real, my team, the hotshot hotwires are doing these
forgive me is that my team is also from cafebot what I do not understand espor not an echo your blok
but thanks for teaching me how to do those challenges thank you
Hey, Mr.Hino. Can you send to me your contacts? I'm have questions for you about robot and program.
Wertheimer Goodyear
Hey great work! We are trying to do it to could you send us suggestions? Frank R conwell MS4 or you could email me. Thanks in advance!
Anarhy is live every
we think that your idea is great but is time consuming alot.
1:10
3:37 penalty
LOL!!! I was just picking the bot up so you could see the bar.
turabil make it faster
Hlo sir...I am JAYASURYA from India.....i had participated in fll Lego league for three times ... please provide me a kit .... please requesting you all
good job
i will share it with my group
jk
You can’t do all that in 2.5 minutes lmao
You are the millionth person to think that the title somehow said that all these missions were done in 2 and a half minutes. The video just shows the missions being done.
This guy makes my team look stupid
