We are new

Hello, me and my group are pretty new to Vex IQ, we need help making a robot because we are struggling on planning on a robot, if you are feeling kind enough can you give us a design?

Have you built the hero bot? If you’re new to vex, that’s a great starting point, but if you feel confident with your building skills, it’s not the best. It is great for a new team to help them understand mechanisms and strategy. If you have built the hero bot, try identifying the ways to achieve the goal, such as scoring or driving, and test the mechanisms by using the engineering design process.

TL;DR

Build the hero bot, and then use the engineering design process.

We need something to help us make the hero bot, it looks pretty solid but we dont know what to do.

Instructions for this years hero robot are on this page

Thank you so much! I owe you one! :smiley:

additionally, if you would like to create a more advanced robot after creating the hero bot, and once you’ve got the hang of Vex IQ, see this topic.

yea build the hero bot first if your new, it’s the smartest thing to do, I would recommend going ahead and try to build off of it, like build and remove things as you collect more experience, look at YouTube and other Vex Forums for ideas

just want to give you a heads up, in the vex iq game manual, it states that your robot must reflect your teams skill level. This rule can be broken by building robots other than the hero bot to exact instructions or hole-counting. This can be found on page 6 or 7😐 in the game manual linked here.
