 Being in FIRST and putting the focus on the robot is like building a robot and putting the focus on the bandsaw (or mill or lathe, or whatever you do your machining with). The robot is a tool we use to play the game, the game is a tool we use to inspire and teach. - GeeTwo [more] |

Kit of Parts
Hi,
We're a rookie team from the UAE, so we're still eagerly awaiting our Kit of Parts. Is there anything that is missing from this year's Kit that would be helpful for us to order? Obviously, this will vary depending on how we approach the game, so more basics for drive and general operation than specifics. Thanks for any help! |

Re: Kit of Parts
I'd look into various mostly-off-the-shelf drive bases pretty closely, as the right drive base is always huge and this year it seems likely to be particularly true. Since you will have somewhat longer lead times and higher shipping charges, you might want to watch some of the quick build teams to get ideas for possible manipulators and the key parts to order for these. Feel free to PM me if you would like more specifics...

Re: Kit of Parts
You can download the kit of parts and the kit bot assembly from www.solidworks.com/FIRST then your team can see what the assembly and control system is like before you get the physical kit. Marie
