Re: MPLAB IDE
Every team should evaluate their programming abilities. If a team feels lost with MPLAB and has difficulty with getting going, then I strongly suggest they consider Easy-C. This will ensure that the team can program the robot. After, they feel comfortable with Easy-c then start on MPLAB. Is there another team in your area you could meet with to help with the MPLAB installation and get you going? Our team is in a similar situation. We have 2 students that I feel could handle MPLAB. One hasn't been to too many meeting and the other I feel should step up to a leadership position, leaving us with rookie programmers. After, last year's experience, I kind of like Easy-C.
