Downloadable Content (DLC) Pack 3 and Buttons

Written by Frank Merrick, 2015 DEC 15.


Looking for a little holiday something from FIRST? Some FIRST STEAMWORKSTM content, maybe a hint or two? Look no further. Lovingly wrapped and delivered!



DLC Pack 3

DLC Pack 3 is going to be released tonight at 7PM Eastern Time. You’ll be able to download it here (http://www.firstinspires.org/2017-frc-teaser).

This DLC pack includes a special community-created element from Darryl Greathouse, Mentor for FIRST Robotics Competition Team 6193, "The Legend of Robotics". We had a few other community submissions for this DLC, but they weren’t quite what we were looking for. Still, thanks to everyone who submitted!



Buttons

I felt like we needed to share this. Fresh off the button machine, the newly redesigned team buttons for 2017! Every team will be getting a set like this (with your own team number printed on them, of course). Check them out:

Wait, will we be allowed 4 drive team members + a coach (5 people) on the field?

That's being heavily discussed in the thread here: https://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=152693

and a media member, no doubt.
And a lot of teams still won't know how to load a robot on the field efficiently and will still leave their robot cart by the gate!

We need this guy to supervise loading robots on/off the field
