Re: Scoiuting, Conveyor Cord
Just go to each team, talk to them, take notes on their bot in short hand.(you probably just want the big picture, not the actual mechanics of the entire bot) Then be sure to convey anything and everything of use to the drivers/coach. The last step is the most important. No sense in taking data that isn't wanted or that won't get to the target. If the coach cares about their friction coefficient, ask for it. If not, don't bother writing it down.(doesn't apply this year but seems to be something many teams brag about that I don't care about) The key to running smooth operation with limited resources is to limit the information you take in. Only take in what is needed and can be properly processed.
Sorry for repeating some, but it is important that you know what you are after. PM me for any other questions/explanations of my post.
