(Note: This is another tutorial produced by my son about his new project)

This project is made possible by the amazing RBX Robotics Kit. It combines a button, a servo, and some rubber bands to launch projectiles over far distances.

Connect:

• Servo Brick to Port 2A
• Pushbutton Brick to Port 3B

Try out this code:

var sv = new Servo(PORT_2A);
var b = new Pushbutton(PORT_3B);

var e = true;

while (true) {
    if (b.clicked()) {
        if (e) {
            e = false
            sv.setPos(90);
        }
        else {
            e = true
            sv.setPos(180);
        }
    }
    delay(20);
}
