1.5.5 - Skill Check - Drive Challenge

Objective: Drive an XRP with basic commands. Wheels and one servo. That is the check.

Show a mentor the bot moving on command, and the servo moving on its own command. A robot that only twitches is not a pass.


The drive check is the credential. These two FIRST courses are for members who want more Java and WPILib on the XRP. They are not required for Phase 1.

Part 1 is about 6 hours: Java, WPILib, and a robot that does more than one drive command. Part 2 continues that course. Do Part 1 first. Dashboard login if you want the credit stored.


Java Programming Part 1



Java Programming Part 2



Tell a programming mentor if you finish either part and want a harder XRP task.
