It is not necessary to draw 200 amps to move a robot through a two minute match. Rule of thumb is you robot should be able to compete for three matches without a battery change. |

For those of you that think the kit chassis is too weak... It is tough stuff. Those of you that say it is too weak, just do not know what you are talking about. |

...I tried to pump it up to the 47 inches. I stopped around 42 inches, than tried getting it through a 36" door. It got stuck, I proceeded to dropkick the thing in front of my team and a girl I had gone out with the previous Fri. It didn't move, I hit the floor.
Ouch, my pride. |

we used to walk barefoot through five feet of snow to get to school, uphill both ways, with just barbed wire for mittens, and we liked it! |

This place is much brighter than most institutions I have seen. It also seems to be lacking straight jackets which I think is a mistake for many of us. |

For any coaches weary of choosing human players this year because you're worried they might lose their cool mid-game, a good indicator of someones ability to keep focused is their attitude while playing video games. |

For those who don't have snow in the forecast - i.e., not New England - just send me your shipping address and I'll FedEx some snow to you right away. We have extra. :p |

You'll want to start with P, add some D to help prevent overshoot, and then add some I to help it get to the correct height if it isn't there from the P and D. |

It's easy to get overwhelmed. Don't get overwhelmed, just keep working at things a little bit at a time. (Oh, and don't forget to have fun!) |

Comments and Documentation: Use them! You would never believe how fast you will forget how something works, especially when things are flying at you so fast. Other/future programmers will understand what you did and why you did it. |

FIRST is a pretty decent microcosm of real life,
those who work hard, accomplish more
decent lesson to learn, and FIRST is allowing us to learn it. |
