Some Questions from a rookie team.

[ming08108]

Hello I have recently started a new team in in Chapel Hill, NC at East Chapel Hill HS. We have gotten the NASA grant and have the registration fee . I have some questions regarding the completion.

I will update this list as answers have been posted or new questions arise.

Answered!
1. I have noticed FIRST Choice opens Mon, what parts do you think a rookie team like us should get.

2. I have Noticed that the GTX 560 is really cheap on FIRST Choice, do you think it would be a good idea to get these and sell them to raise money? (Is this even allowed?)

3. What kind of parts and tools do you think we should buy?

4. Does FIRST Choice require you to pay shipping?

5. We still need to acquire more money for parts. I was thinking maybe $2000 (For everything other than registration costs.), is this a good estimate? (Note we live quite close to the regional, so hotels and transportation should not be an issue)
Also any good ideas for fundraising/companies that are willing to help?


I will update this list as new questions arise.

Thanks in advance!
