I am working with a couple FLL teams, building with the NXT. I am having a little trouble coaching them on studless building techniques, as it is still a bit of a new concept to me as well.

If you want to try something a little different, use RobotC to do this. There are several advantages to this: * It can be done with one "setout" opcode. * The RobotC PID algorithm for this type of movement is different than the NXT-G (...) (18 years ago, 2-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
