Re: Driver Stress?
Haha I know how you are, we're a rookie team, and we had several members afraid to step up to driving our bot, because of the responsibility. I play the most video games, so I'm most used to controllers and joysticks, I kinda had a natural knack for driving the thing. After our first practice round, we had a friend (now FIRST volunteer) say not to change the driver (me) because of how well we did. I feel pretty confident too, as a first year. We placed 7th out of 62 in our region, took home 2 awards (in my sig) and were beaten in the finals by the team that won the entire regional. My friend (who did the arm) was the one afraid of driving, but we worked really well with each other, especially when the arm stopped responding correctly and he had me playing defense like crazy (ran the Nasa Knights 122 up into a goal, hit creamed 1545 and 401, etc)
