Honestly because we have one now working without one would be extremely hard, if you have a lot of extra money (ha a first team with extra money) I suggest getting one, they are useful in most situations and cut time in design, fabrication, and programming by quite a bit.

This year is our first time using them, but there's some information here.

This is the model we're using; I believe they're also available in FIRST Choice.
