We converted all of the STEP files for VEX IQ into .stl so you can download and 3D print your very own VEX IQ parts. This is an excellent project to give your students design and fabrication skills with real world parts.

Only have a VEX IQ Starter or Super Kit? You're in luck - these fun robots can be built using the 850+ parts found in any of the VEX IQ Starter or Super Kits! They're even designed to be controlled using the built-in Driver Control program; no code needed! Check out these robot builds to get you started.

From elementary school through college, VEXcode is a coding environment that meets students at their level. The intuitive layout of VEXcode allows students to get started quickly and easily. VEXcode is consistent across Blocks and Text, across VEX IQ and VEX V5. As students progress from elementary, middle, and high school, they never have to learn a different blocks, code, or toolbar interface. As a result, students can focus on creating with technology, not trying to navigate a new layout.
