CREDIBLE INTELLIGENCE
This mission’s obstacle course makes for a real challenge.
Starting your Rover even slightly out of alignment can result
in it ending up a full foot or more off-target. So be sure to start
your RECON 6.0 in a straight position, or those blocks will
tumble! If necessary, recalibrate your Rover using the
directions on pages 6–7.
MISSION OBJECTIVE
Back in Mission 01, you programmed your RECON 6.0 to perform a simple field
maneuver. This time you’ll program a much more advanced—and exciting— one.
To really put your Rover to the test, you’re going to add some obstacles to the terrain!
MISSION BACKGROUND
Obstacles! You can make towers using LEGO® bricks or blocks for your Rover to knock
down or maneuver around. Or build ramps, create tunnels, or design a slalom course.
Plot your trip so there is enough room for the Rover to pass each obstacle.
MISSION TRAINING BRIEF
Use the mission map to determine the distances and the turning degrees of the
obstacle course. Enter your findings and calculate where your obstacles should go.
There are a few things to consider. First, your map is one inch for one foot. Second,
your Rover is about 8 inches across. (That’s wider than a line on a map!) Third, your
Rover pivots and turns from its front center, marked with an “x” in the illustration below.
You can also use this point to measure your Rover’s starting and ending positions.
