I know the biggest learning came when i was asked to help rewire an old bot i never worked with from 3 years ago last year.

And we are while the drive train sub team is buildind a 4wd drive system the rest of the team besides programing will be building a cart and crate for the robot next year that will implement all of our sub teams skills and we will use this as training. And the drive train will be used to make the cart mobilized.
