Setup How to use the Remote Control  How to Throw a Pass 
Setting Up the Robot to be 
a Receiver / Lineman 
Switch  on  the  remote 
control’s power button.  Don’t 
touch  the  joystick  while 
turning on the remote.  This 
will  cause  the  remote  (and 
robot) to malfunction until you 
turn off/turn on again.
Turn  on  the  robot  using  the 
power  switch  on  the  robot’s 
back  panel.    You  will  see 
lights come on and the robot 
will say “RFL”.
Remote  battery  insertion: 
place 4 AAA batteries into the 
remote compartment on back 
of remote.
Place  the  included  traction 
bands  onto  wheels  com-
pletely as shown.
Insert  battery  with  cable 
arranged  to  side  as  shown.  
Connect  battery  cable  to 
robot’s power cable.
To  insert  battery:  lay  robot 
face-down  and  remove 
battery  key  by  pushing  it 
toward  the  robot’s  head  and 
then pulling it out.
JOYSTICK  -  drives  the  robot  forward, backward,  and 
turns. Joystick control is PROPORTIONAL.  This means 
the  further  you  push  the  joystick  in  one  direction,  the 
FASTER  it  goes.    Small  motions  on  the  joystick  get 
small controlled motions on the robot.
BURST  button  -  when  you  hold  down  this  button,  the 
robot drives at BURST speed (about 2x normal speed).
HIKE  -  used  to  start  a  play  when  using  two  or  more 
robots (see Advanced Operation section).
THROW  -  press  this  key  to  use  the  throwing  arm.  
Press, hold, then release to throw.  The longer you hold 
the button down, the longer the throw.  A brief touch of 
the button makes a short throw.  Press and hold for 2 
seconds and it throws automatically at longest range.
As you hold down the THROW button, LEDs light up on 
the  remote.  This  shows  the  power  of  the  throw.    The 
more LEDs that light up, the more powerful the throw.
SWITCH - press this button to change remote control 
between multiple robots (see Advanced Operation section).
Load the ball onto the throwing 
hand as shown.  Note that the 
ball  fits  between  the  two 
fingers.
Then  just  press  the  THROW 
button on the remote.  
Remember  to  hold  down  the 
throw  button  longer  before 
releasing to throw farther.
Slide  the  claw  hands  and  the 
receiver  plate  onto  the  arms 
and fasten with screws.
Install the shoulder bolt into the 
center hole of the robot's right 
arm, then remove the 2 outside 
screws.    You  cannot  use  the 
receiver hands if the 2 outside 
screws are left in.
Remove  the  screws  from  the 
QB  hand  pieces.  Remove  the 
hand pieces and store them.
UP  and  DOWN  arm 
buttons - raises and lowers 
the  non-throwing  arm  (left 
side  arm).    The  non-
throwing  arm  will  rotate 
through about 180 degrees.
The robot comes with a 9.6V rechargable battery pack.  
This should be fully charged before use.  The robot will 
run  best  on  a  level  surface  like  a  wood  floor  or  short 
carpet.  The  four casters allow the robot to drive  over 
cracks easily.
