This Excel Spreadsheet Saves Time Programming an FLL Robot – EV3 Navigation with Bendik Skarpnes

How can a spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel help you program your FLL robot faster? Today, I will show you a special spreadsheet created by Bendik Skarpnes from FLL Team Gosen. You can input information about your FLL robot’s wheel size and the distance between the wheels and the spreadsheet will calculate how many motor rotations you need to program to get your robot to make a specific turn or drive a desired distance. Best of all, I will show you how to make your own version of the spreadsheet!
