2) I do not know how to write code.
3) I do not know how to use winavr and avrstudio.

Help with #1 would be especially appreciated

Thanks
There are a couple of robotic kits that i have worked with recently that use Atmel products. What is handy is that they both come with test programs as well as the software you need to modify and load them into the processor. It makes them quite easy to use and offers a great learning opportunity. The kits are Asuro and Crash Bobby, both of which are advertised in SERVO magazine as well as being the subject of a couple of tweak articles in past issues.

Have fun!
