- In this video, I demo the new robot I have built in preparation for the 2017-2108 Hydro Dynamics Challenge. This new robot is named Kevin 5.0, the fifth of a series of FLL robots designed starting from the beginning of the Animal Allies season. Kevin 5.0's design was inspired by FLL team Unlimited (TH-cam link below). Enjoy.

Sorry if anyone is seeing ads on my videos now, that's because they've been copyright claimed by the artists of the songs I've used, and the ads are under their control. Just to be clear, I don't make anything off these videos.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM dude may I plz have the instructions pdf for this plz
Very nice robot. I like how you named it Kevin 5.0. The mechanics are pretty advanced. Nice job :) :D :P
Anson Lai - thanks!
Ordered the Hydro Dynamics mat! Super excited to be building the missions! Will be posting videos/speed builds of the new missions soon!
Mat has arrived! Videos out already!
II Yahir II - Yes! The mat has arrived!
I'm going to be in the competition. Can't wait for it!
Pikachu III - it is very exciting!
Cool design! Compact but versatile.
Now I understand the undercarriage gears, very nice. Thank you and good luck in FTC this year.
Jim Stoltz - thanks!
Best bot yet. So much slimmer than your last. LOVE IT! I have also been working on a bot for next year. We used those wheels last year, and they are pure gold! Great choice!
How is that for a real comment? LOL!
TML ProductionsTM - thanks! I have been working hard to make the robot as compact as possible!
Sure looks like it! :)
Nice! Lol our team hasn't touched legos since our last round at NAO, we have been working with a lot metal lately and fabricating things. Also btw we made a website, it would be cool if you could check it out at kuriosityrobotics.com
Are you doing FLL next year? Our team is moving onto FTC and we havent touched legos since our last round at NAO lol :) kuriosityrobotics.com lol plug
WOW NICE JOB MAN!! Sadly we did couldn't participate this year as we are now too old :)
Nice and compact design! Thanks for sharing. Just a little curious what is the purpose of having two color sensors in this design. Thanks.
Huifei Rao - the two color sensors allow for many things. The most important is line squaring. Using to color sensors, the robot can align perpendicular to a line. Secondly, the robot can line follow in different positions. Using the right color sensor to line follow will put the robot in a left position, using the left color sensor will put the robot in a right position.
Very nice job. Thak you for share it with us.
ΝΕΚΤΑΡΙΟΣ ΗΛΙΑΔΗΣ - thanks!
I like the design it is very compact.
HAL-9000 Robotics - thanks!
YW
Very nice build. Did you have some ideas for the use of the undercarriage gears? I had never considered that approach.
Jim Stoltz - what do you mean? I have never heard of under carriage gears.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM At 1:25 you turn the bot over and power up two black gears next to the light sensors and the drag ball.
Jim Stoltz - the two under carriage gears are connected to the medium motors that also power the top two gears. If I want to put the robot on top of another base for whatever purpose, I can use the under carriage gears to power the moving features of that base. For example, I could use those undercarriage gears to power the attachments on the large base I used in Animal Allies.
When you built this robot, did yo have to consider later how easy you can replace the battery or charge the battery? Did you use the big wheels or just the standard wheels EV3 education package provided? Thank you.
is there building instructions for this bot it's pretty awsome???
*awesome
What did you use for your base design? Is it completely custom or did you start from a recommended chassis and then customize?
Bryanne Peterson - 100% custom
Hey there.. awesome design, its really cool
I hope your team and my team make it to the Internationals so that we can meet :)
Robotic Tech. - thanks! Unfortunately I am no longer competing in fll, because I am moving to FTC. I will still be building and programming an fll robot for fun, and posting videos.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM oh ok.. well the same thing with me but im participating as an FLL coach
This robot looks incredible. Is it possible for you to share a video to show how this was built? TIA
Hanh Hoang - I don’t have a time lapse or anything. There is an ldd file that a fan created after seeing this video I released. rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-9860/DLuders/kevin-50-ev3-robot-by-mindstorms-man-swarm/#comments
Thank you so much!!! I'll give it a try.
One problem you may find is that the wheels you use my squish when you apply extra attachments. This may cause your robot to go different distances for one rotation.
hero clash of clans - I have found these wheels to be very reliable. Many wheels, such as the tall ones I used in my previous robots, do squish and prove to be inaccurate. Of course no wheels are perfect, and neither are the motors, which is why we use sensors to fill in for their inaccuracy.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM, What camera did you use? Like the music!
HAL-9000 Robotics - I don't have any type of crazy expert filming gear. I have an iPad, I have imovie, and I have a robot.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM, thanks for the quick reply, sadly the iPad would not work for us to film with, ours is junk. Where do you get your music? Is it in iTunes?
HAL-9000 Robotics - I just use copyright free music from TH-cam, download it in an app called documents, covert to mp3, then import to iMovie. I learned this from a tutorial on TH-cam.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM, Ok is this app in App store? or do you use the music directly from the TH-cam music library?
HAL-9000 Robotics - yes it is on the App Store. It is just called Documents. It has a white background, and a black "D" that is peeling off in the top left corner.
Although, you dont simply need the app to download music into imovie. You have to use the web browser in the documents app and enter a working youtube to mp3 website. This can take a while to find the first time, because many mp3 websites are scams. Then, you need to covert your video to an MP3 file, download it on to the documents app, then open the mp3 file in iMovie. I would suggest finding a tutorial on this.
Nice robot! My team's is super wobbly and unstable
Doge Dude - thanks! Try making the center of gravity lower
Ok thanks I got it already
can you share the instructions steps with us
Pls send me instructions
The Lego Digital Designer (LDD) .lxf Building Instructions file for Kevin 5 can be found on Bricksafe: bricksafe.com/files/dluders/Kevin%205%20by%20Mindstorms%20Man%20SWARM.lxf
The link doesn’t work
Do you happen to have ldd for Kevin 4.0? If so could you send me the ldd? Thanks. Trying to move from wro to fll. Overaged but just want to have the feel of fll
I dont have and ldd, but this person, who remade my robot, does. I cannot guarentee he will give it to you, but you can give it a try. Here is the link the the video he made:th-cam.com/video/QqTHxTGiqwA/w-d-xo.html
Mindstorms Man - SWARM. But according to their video it states in the description to ask you for the design so is a bit confusing
Yong Run - yes, I suppose. We did not make an Ldd for the robot, and I don't have the software. He is the only one. As I said, he may not give the ldd to you, and if he doesn't, there isn't much that I can do. : (
Oh :( ok
Do you think using a box bot is better than using dog gears
You can have dog gears on a box bot. The idea of dog gears is that you have an easier method to put on and take attachments.
did ur parents build that for u
. . . No
Hunter Stoodt - I am not competing this year. I am doing hydro dynamics for fun. I only compete in FTC.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM
Haiii. I'm competing this year. It will be my first time competing. Any tips? I'm not sure what to expect. It's the first year my school started the club , and I got picked Capitan :)
Potterhead Otaku - well, here are some robot design tips. Try to keep the robot compact. Make sure you use all 4 motors allowed. 3 for drive, two for attachments. Use the gyro and color sensors. Put a guard to stabilize the wheels, but don't make it too big and bulky. For wheels, I would the the same wheels I am using in this video, because they are very stable, pretty thin, and provide for decent speed.
Potterhead Otaku - as for presentation, make sure to take a close looks at the rubrics for each aspect.
Ok thank you.
cashewA - Yes, sometimes the gyro can be glitchy and can potentially lead to many disasters. However, if you are able to master the gyro. Initially, I had agreed with you about the wheels. Last year, I used the tall grey black wheels. Eventually, we decided they took up too much room, so we switched to the slightly less tall white wheels. The white wheels worked pretty well, but I have been told numerous times and seen in many successful robots these smaller wider wheels were more reliable. It tried them myself, and found that they had much better traction resulting in more reliable runs. The only disadvantage is the loss of speed, but it is not common when you would need the high speeds you would get from the taller wheels.
Are u competing next year?
Sam Duong - moving to FTC next year
Mindstorms man I was wondering if it would be ok for me to make a robot based off of yours?
Frozty - of course!
If we make the our own attackments can we use this robot?
Will i get in trouble for using this design but 100% make the attachments by our selfs
Soccer Storm - no you won’t get in trouble. I would be honored to see my robot in competitions, but my suggestion is to make your own robot so that you understand everything in it. Also, as the mat and mission change, it may be helpful to build your robot to adapt to the mat. I would welcome you to base your design off of mine, but my suggestion is that inspiration is as far as my robot goes.
Ok we will modify it and make our own attachments thank you
I know how it all works just not good at designing things
Where did you make your robot
I used my own parts and built the robot at my home
What are the type of wheels?
Soccer Storm - here is the link on eBay where you can buy them: www.ebay.com/itm/LEGO-4x-SET-62-4-x-20-WHEELS-technic-lot-short-axle-62-4mm-20mm-black-tires-D-/202024524131
Thanks! i will use those wheels next year. We already build our robot for this year so we will not be changing it.
Yep! I recommend them, good height, still allow for high speeds, but very good traction as well.
How to build tiis robot?
the top music - If you are asking how I built it, it is a long process. It requires many years of experience, understanding all the parts of the robot, and understanding what is good and what is bad.
If you are asking for building instruction, here they are: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-9860/DLuders/kevin-50-ev3-robot-by-mindstorms-man-swarm/#comments
Also, just so you know, I didn’t create the ldd file. I just released this video and fans created the digital copy.
Just send me instructions
Nice robot. Can i share with you my robot design and email you so you could have a look at it and give me a few comments? Thanks.
Mindstorms Man - SWARM yes o see it
Mindstorms Man - SWARM i*
I have send you a mail pls check
Yong Run - yes, I have seen it. I am a little confused about what is the robot and what are the attachments. But from what I can see, you should take advantage of the fourth motor port, and add another motor for attachments. Also, I suggest you use the gyro sensor to turn accurately and too move forward straight. Color sensors also help, so that you can follow, stop at, and align with lines.
Also, the file named fll-ev3.lxf I am not able to access. It is supposedly an unsupported file.
