Motors

Pins

A motor uses the energy from the battery to provide power and movement to your bot!

Your bot comes with three motors: a medium motor and two large motors!

Axles

Pins are used to fasten things together or close unnecessary openings. They come in many different shapes and sizes!

Sensors

Axle Pins Pins

Sensors are really important to your bot! They allow your bot to feel and see what is going on around it! Without sensors your bot would be blind!

An Axle is a rod or a spindle that can be used to attach wheels and other items to. Axles can be placed as both mobile and immobile parts. They come in many sizes.

Hint: the best way to tell what size axle you have is to put it next to a beam and see how many holes it covers :D

Hint: when trying to remember what a pin is used for, think of a safety pin! Safety pins are also used to fasten things together.

Beams

Brick / Battery

A beam is a large sturdy part that is meant to strengthen your bot. Beams have many holes that you can insert pins, connectors and axles to. There are many different kinds of beams that come in many different sizes!

Straight Beams Angular Beams Thin Beams

Hint: the best way to tell what size beam you have is to count the amount of holes in the beam :D
