Re: Things You Shouldn't Do
Don't let freshmen drill on your electronics board by hanging it over the table when you aren't looking, causing a giant crack to form in the Lexan you and your squad spent hours working on making the biggest, best board we ever made... in Week 6.
Why me. |

Re: Things You Shouldn't Do
Never ever EVER let the mechanical engineer guys design places for electronics to go and wires to go. They will put it under a giant rotating arm and make it impossible to wire anything there. Always design it yourself or find a place and be firm about it.

Re: Things You Shouldn't Do
Never forget to secure the robot crate in the back of a pickup when driving. It will fly out of the truck.
Nothing more bizarre than watching a 400lb crate catch wind and lift up and out of the trucks bed. Also, the truck stops faster than the 400lb crate sliding down the road, it rear ended me. Robot survived. My reputation didn't ![]() |

Don't trust your non-driver friends with the controls for a moment. You think they won't shoot you in the face, they will.

Re: Things You Shouldn't Do
Leave the driver station on only the Classmate or not make redundant backups. Ours failed on the day we were supposed to have driver training, which led to a mess particularly because we had lost the LabView install media.

Plugging your 5 volt camera in to a 12 volt supply. We don't know who did this... it might have been me... probably was me...

^^ Did that this year except it was an electrical engineer that decided to put it there! He didn't quite think that one through.
