Technical Resource: Team358.org

[JamesBrown]

I just wanted to take a minute and point out what I believe is one of the best, and least well known technical resources in FRC.

Team358.org

I have no affiliation with the team, beyond working with one of their alumni back in 2008/2009 when I was in college. He got me hooked on their website, now it is one of my primary resources for FRC information. In working with new teams this year, their veteran mentors had never heard of or used the site, so I wanted to share it with as many of you as possible.

Their site has great resources for just about anything related to FRC. From the control system (wiring examples, LabView examples, component descriptions etc) to Mechanical and pneumatic design information, to team organization, to FIRST history. There is a ton of information on their page.

If I had to point a team of rookies to only one site as a reference for all things FRC, it would undoubtedly be team 358's, I was shocked how many people don't know about it, and I wanted to touch on it here in the hope others can get as much out of it as I have.
