Re: Who should be driver?

1) We had 4 candidates for drivers and operaters this year. We split them up into 2 drive teams (answers your third question, we use 2 drivers) and then gave them equal driving oppurtunity both during practice and during qualification matches.

2) The coach is generally the person who best understands the game and the robot.

3) 2 Drivers. Just makes things easier to do. This year was pretty simple. A base and an arm with 3 controls.
