Lost ability to use remote once updated firmware

#1

Just received my mbot. Works great got it talking to mblock software, But now I seems to have lost the ability to control the mbot by remote.

Does anyone know how to restore it?

Thanks

Nic

Apparently there’s some default program running that does that. I don’t know if that’s available, anywhere.

(And I don’t know if it’s mBlock code or native arduino. Hopefully mBlock, since learning by modification is very powerful!)

Get back the Default Program (demo that Uses A,B,C to change modes) here:

I think you have to use a USB cable.
You know that it is working when the bot gives a set of tones on boot.
Firmware update nukes the default program.
I suspect it is not an mblock program but I plan on replicating it at some point and posting in here somewhere since I think everyone could benefit from seeing how it works.
