Important lesson learned
With our team being very small and unequiped this year, as we are trying to bring back a team that died 2 years ago, we made a grave mistake. With only a few people with any experiance, we had to give some people only certain jobs to accomplish what we needed. So, to cut this story down, we only truely taught one person the new programing. He had electrical and programing experiance, unlike anybody else on the team, so we gave him programing and controls. With our other people busy with other aspects only one maybe two other people had any brief exposure to the new systems otherwise. Now, our programmer has currently been kicked off the team, and we are in ALOT of trouble. We still need to finish the last parts of our robot at competition and now have nobody to do the programming. We left our rear open and it most definatly got kicked.
anyways we did learn one lesson, don't put anybody alone on a key part of your team.
Well our first competiton is next weekend, and we are not ready. I just thought maybe this would be something smaller teams should keep in the back of there heads in the future.
