I have no clue why I bought Vex…!! I still would like to find out what it does before i buy more stuff! I have the full starter kit, Programing kit. That stuff. But! I have no clue what to build… I built the Robot in the book it comes with but i have no clue what to do now… basicly I am asking for A new guide just like the one the starter kit comes with but with a diffrent Robot. I know how to build something… If i have instructions, but i have no clue how to program it! if someone can tell me what the programing is like i think - C++ or something like that i will try to find some Online Help but i would love to have a full guide on a new robot so i can find out what i am doing…
Program I use - intelitek easyC for vex controller
I would love for the robot to do something besides just move.
like :
Pick Up Something
Thow something.
Okay, I am asking for someone to just build and program a robot that works and send me how to do it, but one problem… i only have the starter kit
You need to build a robot that you can use to do somethnig for you. Look at the monthly challenges and take a proghramming class. If you want to get serious though you will need more parts.
I know that but… I have absoluteley NO CLUE how to program it! I mean i feel like a baby trying to eat lobster – odd statement – I would like maybe a better guide then the binder that comes with the starter pack… Any websites or… ANYTHING! just help help help please I beg of you people!
Yeah, to really build something decent you might have to buy a metal kit (not the large one) and a motor or two ($20 bucks each). A tank tread kit might not be too bad either since it is not too expensive and you have a lot of cool things you can make with it. I can’t help you on the (OUR TEAM KNOWS LITTLE TO NOTHING ABOUT IT), but you might want to make something with a modified arm, like an arm that moves up and down and the end of it spins 360 degrees. It would be a good challenge for someone just getting into VEX.
nvu - The microcontroller has a very useful set of code in it right out of the box. Start on page one of the fine manual and read it’s instructions as you build the squarebot described in it. It should take you about 4 hours to assemble your first squarebot. The code you need to be able to drive it around is already in the microcontroller.
Dude listen-Take a programming class or experiment and learn through reading tutorials. It cant be explained here. You need a real time conversation with someone who is experienced. We cant really help you.
"‘not liked’ by everyone? what’s up with that? Its not that we don’t like you, its just we don’t know how to program.And the arm I described before can be built with the starter kit.
I Found A Great Help Thing… On Google And I Think I Know How To Program Something Now… But, When I First Got It I Did Not Read Anything And Just Did Something And I Think I Messed It All Up! Is There Any Way To Just Like Erase Everything On The Reciver Thing And The Remote And Like Reset The Easyc Program??
You should be more specific. “the reciever thing” are yo utalking about the m/c or the reciever? Yes it can be reset and you can just download the basic prgram. You really need to be more specific with your terms.
