Gears are nice elements for EV3 robots. You can combine them for generate specific movements or provide additional power for movement. Look at the image below, image 1 is the configuration with one large motor, one gear connected to the motor and additional four to generate a simultaneous rotation for two wheels connected at the large gear (one attached to the motor and the last one) If we rotate the motor clockwise, see the behavior of each additional gear in image 2. The wheels will move clockwise, giving power to the EV3 movement. If we rotate on the other direction then we will have a similar effect in the new direction of the rotation, in the case of image 3 counter clockwise One mission for Into Orbit challenge is to move the robot on an asteroid terrain, how can you use gears to provide strong movement and accomplish the mission?
