[OCCRA]: Inspection 2006

[Mike Martus]

ALL teams are required to complete the Pre-Inspection form sent to your Adult Team leader. This inspection form is required at the time of inspection - COMPLETED!

If you have not seen this form ask your adult team leader.

Note: 1 error - the globe motor is an additional motor not replacing an existing motor in the kit.

WARNING!!! Each year teams come in overweight and are sawing of critical parts to get under the weight. Test your weight!!!!! Before the opening competition.

Hint: Driling holes saves very little weight and weakens your robot.

INSPECTION PROCESS: Fairness forms are turned in.

Once you have passed inspection you will get a sticker placed on your robot. Please do not remove as this is used all season to record inspections on.
