We've got a couple of the kids working in Creo Parameteric so far, since it's free. If you have any pointers to the easiest-to-follow online tutorials for it, we'd appreciate that as well. Local CAD mentors have not materialized, yet, though we are looking... thanks!

While I know PTC sponsors FTC, we've been using Autodesk Inventor
for the last 2 years. Youtube has been invaluable as far as teaching
ourselves how to use the software.
I don't think there are yet a whole lot of teams doing complete CAD
modeling, so I am not aware of any database of models specifically
geared to FTC.
