Re: Rookie member here!

My best advice to you is to get a really good drive base. If your robot can drive ok, you can have some fun. If your robot could do something amazing but can't drive that well, your not going to have much fun.

Alot of teams seem to try something really big and then when one thing breaks they turn defensive. My suggestion for a rookie such as yourself is to start out defensive. Especially for a game like this one.

Similar to Vince, I'm not in your area but if you get some general physics or design questions, pm me and I'll be glad to help as much as I can.
