Re: A plea for roboticists

I'm glad this thread has been brought back up as many of the points Gui has made a still very valid. In addition to many of the things he has said, I definitely would encourage everyone in FIRST to walk out of your comfort zone and learn another aspect of the robot, just to know it. I have done this and been very happy about it. When I joined I started as mechanical because thats the way my team usually works, and I had a large amount of experience doing the mechanical side of things. Then last year i decided to make a switch over the electronics and programming to see how that part of the robot is built. Once you know a good amount about how everything works, you can design soo much better.
