[smearyllama]

i'm trying out for a vex team, but the choice is random, any tips for a competition?

[thebegul]

how do you get more than two motors to be remotely controlled?

See the different channels on the remote? For the default code (the programming already on the microcontroller) channel 1 controls motor port 1, channel 2 controls motor port 2, and so on. I believe putting a jumper clip on digital port 14 will link motor ports 2 and 7, and 3 and 8 together. Read the vex manual, it's useful.

[zmanchippy]

if u can can u tell me how u made it ?

[waltercow864]

[pranit93]

[doctorturban]

Hey, how did you attach the thing that goes up and down that holds the Rubik's cube? How did you get it to be extended?

[amaygupta]

Can you please tell me how you made the forlift part and how you got the two tall extensions! This can really help me and congratulations!

jrblues55: This is made from a starter kit.

deathblood123: I used one of the motors and wound some string around it. When you rotate the motor it moves the forks up and down accordingly.

@tega85 did your come with rack gears the straight ones and a linear slide because i made a forklift type and it works pretty good it goes 31 inches high and compacts to 17 inches

[deathblood123]

what did you use to make it go up/down?

[jrblues55]

could i make that out of the starter kit

[sorphin]
