I hope this has been your experience with other students, and none of this has come from mentors!

I assume your team is broken up along functional lines. Is there any reason why you cant be on the drive train, or electrical, or other mechanical design part of the team this year?

From my experience as a mentor, very few students really knew what they were doing when they jumped to a new subteam at the start of the build season. It was mostly up to the mentors to show them what needed to be done, show them how, get them started, and then stand back and let the students run with it.
