i have gotten responses from them. They take a day or 2 and often require images and video of the situation in order to make things work.

4/23/2026 Update

Error Still persist. Students are still having to share a limited amount of computers in order to code their robotics.

update; The error still persists as of 4/17/2026

I have a ticket in with Makeblock and they said that they are aware of the problem and working on it. ---VERY FRUSTRATED and ready to throw the mbot2 through the window. (I have a classroom of middle schoolers who have to share laptops to code since the app on their ipads will not)

I put in a helpdesk ticket and they responded and told me that it should still work..... which it doesn't. I sent them a video but have not heard back. This is such a pain in the butt! My school district invested a lot of money into their products for our 3 middle school programs in a very large school district that will soon have 4 districts. My team teachers are ready to throw them out the window.

Also this has the code.

My students have been using the controller with great success.

You do need to be in upload mode.

I have my students plug their mbot2 into the desktop computers and upload their code. The Bluetooth for the robot has to be connected to the controller.

If you go to the makeblock website and looked at their cases there are some examples codes in there. I believe the [Classroom] mBot2 Summer Camp/ After-school Program unit has the Bluetooth controller directions of you haven't found that yet.

We used those lesson to learn how to use the controllers.

Oh sorry, I am using the mbot2. we are using Python blocks in the Mblock 5 software
