Go to Post Personally, I'm really not jealous of any good team in FIRST. I'm happy for them, and take a page out of their books to see how we can better impact our students in the future. - waialua359 [more]

Re: new programmer

Hello,

Study what STATE MACHINES are . Then I would concentrate on learning Easy C unless you are proficient in C.

Also, do not use while loops that will interfere with the 26.3ms refresh of the controller. Doing so will generate the unforgiving Red Light Of Death(ROD).

Other than that, your questions need to be more specific.

A quick search yields:

Though that may be a bit long to read through in its entirety.

Re: new programmer

A full set of manuals also came on the CBot compact disk in the Kit of Parts.
