[FTC]: FTC offseason project??
Hey,
I was wondering if any teams were going to build any kinds of fun off season project. I know 1902 is talking about building maybe a rapid fire ping pong ball shooter or something like that just for fun. I wanted to know what else other teams were working on in the FIRST community. Andrew Team 1902

I think I might get the students to try the slide drive that 148 and 217 did as part of their drive train this year.

I wish you luck. Try to make it easily adaptable to whatever the FTC GDC throws at us. I would love to see it!

Re: [FTC]: FTC offseason project??
it might not work, but I've been thinking about trying to make our FTC robot Skype controlled. i was able to do it with a Vex robot, but i don't how the FCS communicates the Joystick controls over Bluetooth. it would still be cool to be able to play HotShot from anywhere around the world via Skype. thats just a programming project though.

Phil has some great stuff going on with SeaPerch up there!
iirc from the conference in Hawaii, weren't the kits only free via a grant and even then only to educational organisations or institutions? I may have that wrong though.

Re: [FTC]: FTC offseason project??
i think its free if you give a good reason why it would help out the community and its ran by the navy and i think it was that they wanted to get more people interested in underwater robotics so they give them out for free as a grant. i think that is how it is but not 100% shore
