The new RCB3 English manual is online, and includes a detailed write-up and example of looping starting on page 57. The manual can be downloaded here: http://ixs.co.jp/en/products/robot/manuals/HtH3operationManual.pdf

again thanks for your help

Give it a go following the manual. If you run into problems I'm sure that folks here will be happy to help.

aswell is there a way to put a constant power feed to 2hv while im programing .


Yes, quite a few users have done it. If you do a search on this forum's archives you'll find some examples.

I can't really recommend a specific solution since I'm one of the minority that doesn't believe in using an external power supply while programming. The thinking is that the constant power, heat, and servos trying to maintain position will accelerate aging and wear. Since the servos are the most critical, and most expensive, components in the robot, I try to be as kind and gentle to them as possible.

I bought an extra battery pack (several actually since I do competitions sometimes), turn the robot power off while I'm just "thinking" (the vast amount of "programming" is just sitting there thinking) and use the charger that came with my Kyosho Manoi AT01.

But, others hook up external power supplies successfully and haven't reported significant problems.

Good :)

It happens sometimes. It's easy to plug the cables into the wrong connector, or misalign them.
