Go to Post If anything, I believe Battle Bots is in the best interest of FIRST. Battlebots helps to create an interest in robotics, and FIRST gives us the opportunity to participate in a robotics program. - Adare180 [more]

Also, make sure the two fuses for your RoboRIO and VRM are seated fully (you shouldn't be able to see any metal on them. You don't want them bouncing out and shutting down your robot in the middle of the match.

Also, forgive me for not being able to see (the picture is just a bit too small to tell) but where is your radio plugged into? I see wires coming out of the 5v 2a port of the voltage regulator module, but they don't seem to match the colors on the radio plug. If it's crimped somewhere in between, ignore this one and carry on!

Other than that, it looks good!
Thanks for the suggestions I am really glad to hear some! Ok so as for the fuses your completely right I didnt even notice that. And as for the radio power it is heatshrinked to a new cable. As for the battery terminals how should we insulate it(Sorry for being a noob) but I have no Idea what works. Thanks again!
