Answer: Sounds like you need to learn about gear ratios. A great free resource is the chapter on gearing in Building Mindstorms robots for FLL. You can find it here: Building LEGO Robots for FIRST LEGO League The smart version of the question is much better. The true goal (a slower robot) was stated given other Forum participants the chance to address your real problem (gears) not the red herring of power levels. Be explicit about the outcome you are seeking You are more likely to get a useful response if you are explicit about what you want respondents to do. Do you want pointers, somebody to check a program, provide a rule interpretation, or something else? Poor: Our robot never seems to do the same thing twice in a row. Answer: Sorry to hear that.
