Moving the Claw

This tutorial covers how to move the claw on your Clawbot IQ in VEXcode IQ (1st gen). By the end, you’ll have a project that closes the claw, waits, then opens it again.

Make sure your robot is configured with the Drivetrain, Gyro version of the Clawbot IQ build, so you see the ClawMotor blocks in the toolbox.

  1. Attach the spin motor for block to the when started block. This closes the claw.
