"programmer is out of sync" error on ME Orion

#1

Today I purshased the Starter Robot Kit with the ME Orion module.

I managed to write some somple code to it, like making the LED on the module blink.
But when I tried to upload one of the examples from the makeblock library I get this error:

Arduino: 1.0.6 (Windows NT (unknown)), Board: "Arduino Uno"
Binary sketch size: 6 448 bytes (of a 32 256 byte maximum)
avrdude: stk500_loadaddr(): (a) protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x55
avrdude: stk500_paged_load(): (a) protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x74
avrdude: stk500_cmd(): programmer is out of sync

I’ve been trying to fix this for the past 4 hours with no success. Anyone here knows how to fix this?

I assume that you have the proper COM port set? Are you sure that you have installed the proper driver for the Arduino card? Those are what I would check

Same error here, Ted. Did you ever figure out what was going wrong?

For anyone who gets this error in the future, it is likely to be an incorrect installation of the Makeblock libraries. I reinstalled the latest version, and am no longer getting this error.
