Go to Post To think that the seminal work on the FRC experience is about the least favorite game of all time, being played by a team that no longer exists, is either the height of insanity or a master stroke of inspiration. - GeeTwo [more]

Re: Off season projects

It all depends on how much money your team has to throw around. If you've got money to spare, try designing and building a whole new robot with a full FRC control system either to play an old game or design your own game. If you don't have that much cash, you can try outfitting last year's robot with a HERO board from CTRE. If you have even less money to spare, you can take the electronics from last year's robot and put them on a new off-season robot. Or you could just wire a new board with a few motors if you don't want to build a whole new robot. At the least, you could have your electronics team take apart the electronics from last year's robot and then try to put them back. Really the only limits are your imagination, your pre-season meeting time, and the depth of your pockets.
