Each year, a VEX V5 Hero Bot is designed to provide teams with a starting point to play the current VEX V5 Robotics Competition game. It is intended for experienced teams to be able to quickly assemble a robot to investigate the game's dynamics. New teams can also use the Hero Bot to learn valuable building skills and have a robot they can customize to compete with early in the season.
Purpose
The Hero Robot:
- is intended to be a starting place for new teams.
- is not intended to be a winning robot.
- is not capable of scoring in every way that is allowed by the game.
- only uses a basic set of parts
Build Instructions
Build instructions for the all VEX V5 Hero Bots are located in the VEX Robot Build Library. A new Hero Bot is added to the Robot Build library and the VEX Mechanical > Competition Robots Library following the new game announcement at the annual VEX Robotics World Championship.
