Could you elaborate on the programming part? We were planning to use the Labview default program which should be buildable and ready to run the robot. What else takes place in the programming room?

Right now, here are the major tasks assigned to the programming room:
  • Install updates on Classmates
  • Configure radios
  • Construct driver station (velcro joysticks, computer, and radio to wood)
  • Image cRIO
  • Build and deploy basic Labview programs

Anything missing?
Sounds good to me! You might give them the option of installing updates before the kit build. But that's assuming that they are able to pick up those parts prior to kick-off.
