I am on the electrical team and every year our goal for the electrical team is to make the wiring as neat as possible and to also label it the best we can. As Dylan said the electrical team looks at all the robots from the previous years and we show the progression of neatness and labeling as the years go on. I think it is a great way to show the new kids what we have done on electrical from the previous years and also it gets there minds started with brainstorming on what we can do to make the electrical better for the upcoming year. Basically like Cormier said, you should keep your previous robots if you have the room to show the progression and also to showcase them and get kids interested in FIRST!
