Too long has the FRC electronics system been a headache of inconclusive Google searches. Code Orange saw the need for a quality electronics tutorial series and is now ready to reveal its work.
One of our students has been hard at work making tutorial videos, aiming to make electronics easier for all teams (especially rookies). We hope we can help every team make electronics into a joy rather than a pain. So far we have
56 minutes of material that is expanding every day. (Code Orange is working on a Power Distribution Board video at this very moment)
As of this writing, we have videos about the tools we use and where to buy them, explanation of a couple electronics terms, what each part does, and some how-tos. Once the rules are released we will continue making videos explaining the assembly of the kit bot electronics system from start to finish, including radio setup, camera setup, and other software setup. We suggest you show this series to your electronics and programing sub-teams.
We have taken the time to add
closed captioning to (at this point most of) the videos, in expectation that they will need to be watched in high-noise environments on tinny netbook speakers.
Please distribute this link to anyone who could use this information:
