Question:
What tools should rookie teams be sure to take to the Regionals?


Ken
Electrical: Mulitmeter, soldering iron, solder, extra wire, crimper, extra connectors, schematics (if available), electrical tape, battery chargers!!!!

Programming: Dongles, programming cable, tether

Mechanical/Pneumatics: Wrench Sets/ ratchet sets, or just the main ones you used during construction (in my team's case, these happen to be 7/16" or 11 mm), power tools (drills).

If i think of a few more throughout the day, will post again.
