Re: Is CAD essential to all teams?

Our shopmates 3130 haven't used CAD to model their robots or mechanisms for at least the last four years. Anyone who follows Minnesota's top team's knows that they have been quite successful without it. Evidently not essential, but our team finds it pretty great. Especially because we can build up relationships with sponsors making us cool fancy parts
