Re: Help for Rookies

Know the limits of build time. Six weeks seems like a long time, but if your a new team, and especially if your a smaller team, time will run out quicker than you think. Don't bite off more than you can chew, and don't try to make major design changes too late in the season unless you have to. Remember that the most complicated design is not always the best design.

Also, be aware that the rules change as the build season progresses. Check the FIRST website for the team updates regularly, otherwise you might be building for a strategy that is no longer allowed.
