Re: Teach me?

Do you have access to a VEX system? The VEX robots can be programmed using "C" and MPLAB and are much easier to take home to work on (and pick up when they decide to start smashing into everything because of a bug in the code.)

I have found that my students have had good success teaching themselves to program VEX and FRC machines using the tutorials and assistance available on CD and by... gasp... reading the manuals.

It is kind of dry, but if you stick with it, you should have some killer auto modes by March. Best of all, perhaps, with your experience as a driver you should be able to develop drive control code that makes your robot respond really well in telop mode as well.
