Re: How often do you worry you're behind?
Some member of our team are really worried this year, because we are really pushing ourselves this year to build a robot that can take us to St. Louis.
(And no, it's not because we think we HAVE to, or anyone's forcing us. We just think we owe it to ourselves to keep building on the successes we have had, and the next step is winning a regional.)
In all of this fear and sorts, we are miles ahead of the last two years. We usually start build in the heat of exam week, but we started preliminary build last Saturday (we built the C-Base bot and have been calibrating the sensors and testing equipment), and an FTC team is coming in to help us next week with our minibot. Our prototypes have looked great as well.
I think design finalization is tomorrow!
As our build leader said, "No one can understand my happiness."
