Re: What preseason training is your team doing?

Last year build season was the first year my team started to use CAD drawing to design a robot. Although we never use that robot, I gained a lot of experience in interpreting another person design by them sketching or saying what they want on the robot. It work great because we could improve the design and add on to it as we progressed through the build season.

I would suggest to break into groups and each group design a robot base on the rules of the previous games. Then later discuss what would or wouldn't work on a design.

I will be uploading some of my rough sketches that I drew for this year's game. I mostly work on the chasis that will become a 30 point-climbing robot. Later on that season, I created a final drawing for this robot. This pretty much shows you how I started to draw a robot, and the changes that we made through that stressful 6 weeks.
