All (Current) MyBlocks!

These are all of our important MyBlocks as of now.

CorrectAngle

This block declares that any specific direction is the angle inputted based on where the robot is turned to. It uses subtraction and a variable to do this.

SuperGyroReset

This resets the gyro and fixes drift.

UnregulatedDrive

Two unregulated drive blocks, one for each motor. This is used for wall squaring.

AntiFreeze

Has the arm end on rotations or time, so the arm won't freeze on the last bit of rotation. The rotations goes into an absolute value in case the power is negative.

SuperPUDS(Rotate, Light, Time, Touch, Variable)

January 2, 2018

Hey, guess what?












   Besides that, however,  we have a very important practice today. Our tournament is in four days! We gotta prepare! So, today, we made a new MyBlock called AntiFreeze - the name has a good meaning. First off, it prevents the arm from stalling for a long time when pulling the arm up by having two end conditions - rotations or time. Also, snow project? Anti-freeze? Get it?
    We will also be working on our Project and trying to memorize our lines, while fixing up the website and social media pages. This is one of our last three practices, so we need to get this stuff done.
    Lastly, we're trying to finalize some mission runs. We want to get the toilet and burning house missions for incredible amounts of points. The more, the better.

                                                                 Until next time, keep building!
