# M3 video: The whole arm moves

> For agents: start with the [agent guide](https://parol6.build/llms.txt). Every page is Markdown by default; add `Accept: text/html` for HTML.

**Status: planned.**

This page links Joel's video for [M3. The whole arm moves](/lore/m3-whole-arm) once it is published.

## Plan

**Working title:** Six joints, one robot: the first homing.

Beats:

1. A fast assembly montage, one joint per chapter.
2. Wiring the base.
3. The test-before-you-close moment.
4. The first homing, in real time.
5. What homing is, as an animated explainer.
6. The first jog of all six joints.

**Shots:** Overhead and side cameras; a locked-off wide shot for the homing; the E-stop always in frame.

**Teaches:** System integration, homing and kinematics.

## Terms

- **M3 video**: the published video for milestone 3.
