Re: "Open Source" Drive Systems

Our team doesn't use any CAD whatsoever when designing our robot, and even when it comes to paper or chalk we mostly just use sketches to get the general idea. Rarely do we make detailed drawings of the robot, or parts for the robot, let alone use scale. However for those teams that do use CAD this could be very useful at building up the information level of all teams involved, so it would be a good idea really. After all, learning is one of the most important aspects, if not THE most important aspect of FIRST, and when you pool knowledge and resources like in this idea it makes it possible to learn even more.
