Re: What Percent of Teams Use CAD?

3946 does not use CAD systematically.

We have CADded a few assemblies over the years, sometimes with solid works, and sometimes with power point. This year's wheel layout was determined based on "CAD" simulations of crossing the various terrain defenses in power point. Last year's adaptation of dura-omni to the KoP chassis was done in solid works before we built it. The ball pickup for Aerial Assist was laid out in power point.
