Number of Drivers/Operators?
Hi all,
Our team is in a conflict about driving at the competition.
I used to be in FRC and I'm used to having one driver who controls the robot drive and one operator the arm and other stuff.
this year I started a new team in a new country, with no one else having experience in FRC.
Other team members insist that it is easier to have only one person control the entire robot. This became possible because we're using a xbox controller.
However, we haven't practiced controlling at all during the building season (didn't build field components, not many totes as a rookie team). I strongly believe it's way better to have two people when driving the robot.
What do you think of this, how many people should we have to control the robot? Also, if there's any team that has only one driver to control the robot, I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks!!
