Go to Post At first blush, people don't need to know about GP any more than they need to know gear ratios, screw classifications, or LabVIEW. It's about Inspiration. It's about Recognition. It's about Science and Technology. That's all it's For; any more than that is just gravy. - Taylor [more]

As a mentor for our team I wont to discuss this issue about :
1. Who many driver is butter for the team?
2. Who to give them exercise?
3. Is there any program for the PC that help them to exercise?
4. What characteristic should have the driver such as patience natural speedily?
5. Anything ells ??
1) We always have 2 teams of 2 for driving the robot. One team is the 'A' team, and the other is the backup. 1 driver does the wheels, and the other does that years mechanism. (claw, kicker, etc.)

2) Give them practice by having them drive either last years bot, or put together a kitbot just for practice driving. This will be helpful later as well as a defense bot to practice against.

3) 5th gear is a good program for practicing.

4) The people you want as your drivers for competition aren't always the ones who are the best at driving the bot. You want somebody who is dependable, put in a fair amount of hours during build season, and most importantly, will listen to the drive coach.

Hope this helps, good luck this season!
