Re: how much time to Program

We shoot for six days before ship date. (We get the last six days before ship off because of 3 day weekend, and our school has 3 days where students do experiential learning) Generally we get to program the robot for most of the six days, with a many breaks in there for when mechanical things need to be tweaked. This year we ended up only using four days and spending two of the days with driver practice.
