Winning Design! Lego Mindstorms NXT: Design Patterns for Fun and Competition

I read this book when trying to figure out what the best way was to coach my FLL teams. It was phenomenal! It's centered around robots for FLL, and covers EVERYTHING (chassis design, programming, powered and active attachments, consistent turning, placement- the list goes on!). I had all the kids on my teams read it, and it has helped inspire some brilliant ideas as well as provide some great tips.
