Re: Rookie Team needing some help

I was in that position earlier last year.

Our team used Labview depending on one students our rookie year, he graduated and we were back to square one.

I'm a data miner freak... so I got a table with data from every robot that connected to a field last year worldwide and found that top 2 were:

49% Java
35% Labview

With that in mind, we choose Java, ended up not using the robotbuilder but use it for training... found tons of example online and we had a driveable robot early on... fun part will be the setup for sensors, but we are happy with our move... younger kids are also learning java with FTC.. so overall, it was a good move for us.
