Re: Team 254 Presents: Dropshot Technical Binder 2016

In 2016, Technical Director Alex Cherry and Documentation and Submissions Director Matt McDonald wrote it with me (now 1st-year mentor) serving as the editor.

The binder also required a lot of work from our Media Director Peter Feghali to do the renders, layout, and aesthetics.
Thank you to you and Travis for sharing. You mentioned some other mentors who helped who I never heard of or met.
Teams like yours are an inspiration to many, including us. As a follow up, it would be cool to hear about the team structure and the mentors that support both the robot (many who we know) and the non-robot technical support that you folks have.
I'm sure many others would like to have something similar, but cant do so because of lack of support/expertise or mentors who wear too many hats. Sounds like Team 254 has the right mix of mentors to do the other parts as well besides dedicated and highly intelligent students.

I hope this is a project you folks continue to do and share post-season annually.
