Salut, I just unpacked the Maqueen robot and put it together. When I download code from the wiki, the LED, the Ultrasonic and other code works. But when I try to drive the motors like the first example, thre is nothing happening. There is not much to do wrong but battery is plugged in with three AAAs and power light is on, The MicroBit is ok, is seen as drive, accepts the hex files and executes them. Do I have a dead robot?

Ciao, Mathias
