Re: What Will a Rookie Team Will Need to Acomplish in the Build Season
#1 Read the Rules! (find a team lawyer...) and build your robot to comply with the rules, I've seen too many rookie teams rebuild their robot on Thursdays at competitions.
#2 Decide on a drive team before your first competition. If you finish your robot before the end of the 6 weeks have your drivers drive it till they break it, then fix the robot, and then drive it again till they break it... I like to say its better to break it during build season then the first time you get on the field.
ohh... and don't forget scouting, because if you follow 1 and 2 you may get a chance to be a picking team.
