Coding mission

Code the sleigh to go forward for 5 seconds, then turn right a full 360 degrees and stop. Try it two different ways!

Blocks and their jobs

  • DC Motor Block ×2Sleigh wheels

Let's think

Find out which way the two motors turn.

  • Use the Double DC Motor Block when you run two DC motors at the same time.
Forward
Backward
Turn left
Turn right
Stop
  • To repeat a command several times, touch the number under it and set how many times on the number pad. (1 = 1 second)
Show the solution

Go forward five times, then turn right four times to spin 360 degrees. Then make the code shorter using the number pad.
