Introduction #

The VEX GO Drivetrain uses a built-in Inertial Sensor to support precise forward, reverse, and turning movements. These blocks allow the robot to move continuously or for set distances, rotate by degrees or to a heading, and respond to changes in its rotational orientation.

The Drivetrain category also includes configuration blocks that let you set drive and turn speeds, define stopping behavior, apply timeouts to avoid execution stalls, and manually update the robot’s heading or rotation values.

Below is a list of all available blocks:

Actions – Move and turn the robot.

drive – Drives the robot continuously forward or in reverse.
drive for – Drives the robot for a set distance.
drive until – Drive until a specified condition.
turn – Turns the robot continuously left or right.
turn for – Turns the robot a specific number of degrees.
turn to heading – Turns the robot to face a specific absolute heading.
turn to rotation – Turns the robot to reach a specific cumulative rotation.
stop driving – Stops all robot movement.

Settings – Adjust drivetrain settings.

set drive velocity – Sets the speed for all drive blocks.
set turn velocity – Sets the speed for all turn blocks.
set drive stopping – Configures the stopping behavior after movement ends.
set drive timeout – Limits how long drive blocks wait to reach their goal.
set drive heading – Manually sets the robot’s gyro heading value.
set drive rotation – Manually sets the robot’s cumulative rotation value.

Values – Check movement status.

drive is done? – Returns a Boolean indicating whether the drivetrain is no longer moving.
drive heading – Returns the drivetrain’s heading angle (0 to 359.99 degrees).
drive rotation – Returns how much the drivetrain has turned since the project started.
drive velocity – Returns the drivetrain’s current velocity in %.

Actions #

drive #

The drive block moves the drivetrain forward or in reverse using the current drive velocity. This block runs continuously until another Drivetrain block interrupts it or the project stops.
