Question 1st time FRC Member- Electrical

Hi I am a newbie for FRC and I am familiar with how the game is set up and have been recently on an FTC team for another high school in Arizona and recently I have an interest in electrical engineering and have been assigned into the electrical position for the team and I am still new to the electronics area. Is there any suggestions on where I should start learning these new concepts for electrical? I am completely lost and don't know where to start. I have been researching chief delphi for a while and want to find a starting spot.

This website has a ton of resources, and should help you get to know the new control system pretty well. If you have any specific questions, just post in the 'Electrical' subforum here, and someone should be able to answer your questions.

Welcome to FRC!

I would set up all your electronics on a piece of plywood to practice. Get to know the electrical components. Check out this website. There are also a lot of youtube videos showing a basic overview of the electronics.
