I am head of scouting for my team (25). As you guys are rookies, I would most likely advise you to make sure you do Pit Scouting. Go into the pits and ask teams questinos about their robots. Most, if not all teams will be more than likely to help you out. Make sure you get the basics down first:
1. main functions that it can accomplish
2. autonomous
3. motors and other movement devices
4. types of wheels
etc, etc
I reccomend not getting to bogged down on the superadvanced stuff. Just get to know your opponents and know them well and you guys will be fine.
Also, for some examples of scouting sheets, check the white papers section. I know that a lot of teams put up their scouting sheets on there.
Best of luck in then '05 season!
