In this video, I show how you can program a LEGO SPIKE Prime robot with Scratch. I explain how you can detect the end of the pendulum swing. This allows you to time the robot movements and add energy to the swing. In the end, you have a LEGO robot swing that can start from a standstill. If you tune the program well it can make up to 180-degree swings!
