Challenge 3Using Pilot 3, you must….
• Make your robot travel in TWO different ways
• If you make it go forwards and backwards, can you make one of the steps a spin?
• If you make it spin, can you make one of the steps going forwards?
• When it is going forwards or backwards and each motor is going at a different speed, does this affect how your robot moves?
