www.usfirst.org/frccontrolsystem

The best way to ensure success with the new system is to follow, step by step, the instructions found in the manual, starting with Chapter 1.

Go Teams!

I can't decide if I should laugh or salute you.

So, if I read this correctly, you are saying to read and follow the manual step by step? Don't just jump in and do things out of order?

WOW!!! That's a novel idea!


OK, sorry for the sarcasm. I find it almost humorous that we would even have to post something like this, but obviously it is needed.

Thanks for the advice and warning Mark.
