I had no experience and he had a little but no FRC experience. Basically we learned everything from online in one day. Neither of our mentors know electrical so we were really on our own. So I proudly present what we did. We still have to shorten the Network cable and connect the light and two cameras but that's for final robot assembly. All constructive criticism will be taken but I am still really proud.

Just so you know, using that IR controller (or at least using it in-match) is illegal because it counts as an external signal that does not pass through the router. Otherwise, this looks really, really good for your first time! Also, I wouldn't suggest shortening your ethernet cable. Those things can be very, very difficult to crimp, especially if you don't have the right tool.
