Rules Test for Ultimate Ascent

[Dale]

We have a pair of off-season scrimmages coming up this weekend, Girls' Generation (http://team1540.org/girlsgeneration/) and Rookie Rumble (http://team1540.org/rookierumble/) and the time has come to pick the drive teams. I'm looking for a rules test for Ultimate Ascent. It could be a written test or a on-line. Do any teams have one they'd like to share?

Dale,

Attached is a rules test that I used recently for a driver training quiz with Ultimate Ascent. I put this together using some other resources that I gathered online and offline. Some of the questions are fairly tricky.

Those are great, thanks! Out of laziness, do you have an answer key?

PM me a google drive account if you have one and I can share a link to a copy of our driver test from this season.

I don't understand #13 on the attached quiz, it looks like you mixed up red and blue.

A rules test should be part of passing an inspection to compete.
There are far far too many teams who don't know the rules who get behind the glass. It's time to fix that. Seriously.

http://prezi.com/xed6-uedto33/frc-2013-rule-quiz-3/ anyone who is on drive team should be able to get a one hundred on that quiz. I made it through without even having to think about my answers. In fact, I wouldn't want anyone on the field who didn't know the answers to those questions.

On top of the rules, I would think a quiz on the working of your individual robot would help. My philosophy has always been that there should be four people on the field capable of diagnosing and fixing the robot. For example:

1) Mike tells you to shut the dump valve on the robot. Where is it?

A) Next to the dummy light on the shooter.
B) Next to the solenoid block.
C) On top of the left Super Shifter
D) Beside the Main Breaker

2) The (pneumatic) shooting hook is not pulling the frisbees into the shooter. What could be the issue?

A) The robot has low battery
B) The robot has low air
C) The robot is losing communications
D) The intake is broken

3) The robot is not getting communications. Which could NOT be the issue?

A) Robot is off
B) Dump valve is open
C) D-link is unplugged
D) cRio is unplugged

4) The code is broken. Whose fault is it?

A) Jack
B) Jack
C) Jack
D) Jack

#13 trick question

[Calvin Hartley]

One of our mentors once gave a test for the drive team. He gave us all an entirely blank piece of paper and said "Write down all the rules you can think of. Go." (he also gave a time limit.... I don't recall what it was though.

We now refer to it as "The Mr. K. test."
