Prompt

Build a cardboard robotic arm with two micro servos. One joint at the base, one at the grip. It should pick up a ping pong ball and put it in a cup. Use an Arduino Uno. Give me A4 cutouts, wiring, and code.

Generated code

// Sample copilot output: robotic arm
#include <Servo.h>
Servo base;
Servo grip;

void setup() {
  base.attach(9);
  grip.attach(10);
}

void loop() {
  base.write(40);
  delay(400);
  grip.write(20);
  delay(300);
  grip.write(90);
  delay(300);
  base.write(140);
}

Difficulty and time are from the QA log for this prompt, not a timed class period.

If this build gets stuck

• My servo isn’t moving
• The cardboard joints keep falling apart
• The motor or servo gets hot and stops
