Hi! (Newbie question) I got LEGO Mindstorms 51515 for Xmas a few days ago and I love it! Straight out of the box, the Mindstorms App prompts you to calibrate the motors (or rather it calls it "updating" the motors). For one of the four motors, I didn't do such a great job and the zero position is a little bit off. I would like to recalibrate it, but after much searching, I just can't locate the option on the Mindstorms app. Can anyone please help me figure out how to trigger the motor calibration sequence again from the Mindstorms App after the initial installation? Thanks! -
In the MINDSTORMS app on the word-block side, sin() and cos() appear to work as expected, with the argument in degrees. But tan() does not give the right answer with the argument in degrees or in radians. For example, I'm getting tan(30) = -2.1e-7 and tan(30*3.14157/180) = -0.075, when I expect tan(30 degrees) = 0.58. If I switch over to text based input, math.tan() works as expected, with radians as input. Is anybody else confused by this in the word blocks or maybe already figured out what I'm overlooking?
