Go to Post If it's the loss of American lives that concerns the nation, why not campaign aggressively against smoking, or improve automobile safety? At least then, the benefits will be tangible, and substantially more significant to the well being of the locals. - Tristan Lall [more]

Re: Hours spent during build season

We put up an aggressive schedule this year and wanted to have the programmers given enough time on the robot as possible. It worked out as they had a full week of program testing while mechanical would work at the same time. This resulted in the programmers and drivers having three days of drive time and refining code.

This in hours for me as a mentor was around 250 hours. I had to be there at any point a student was in the shop. The kids averaged 150-200 hours. We also met pre season and put in another 112 hours. This was spent mentoring FTC and FLL teams. Hosting an FLL tournament and Robot Rumble (FRC) off season event.

We begin again tonight until our first competition at week four.
