I really need help! I was starting to work with the App from across the room, and R2 rolled right off of the table. He fell onto a chair, then onto the floor. The wires from the dome disconnected, but I've plugged them back in.

However, even after checking all of the wires to see that they're plugged in (they are), he won't turn on any more. When I push the power on button (#6), the logic display lights up - but he doesn't come "on." Any ideas on where to look?

Try going through the start up sequence again. His initial start up procedure for the first time.

The right leg motor has the encoder that starts R2 at the initial startup. If you have knocked a cable out there then it would not operate or startup. Check all the cables, make sure they are connected with pins in place, no bent ones. Also check cables for broken joints.

I’m thinking that a battery has dislodged. Remove and reseat all batteries. Re-initialise r2 as per the instructions.
BUILDING: Taking a break / Waiting for the next epic build to be released
