Re: formal quality procedures in FRC?

We built two bots and practiced quite a bit, more would have been better. And we changed the can grabber twice in mid-season - took time to get used to it. But our biggest mistakes in competitions were avoidable and sometimes embarrassing. I'm thinking designing the robot to be testable and then testing it with a rigorous checklist will help. But the culture part is tough...
