In fact, one of our volunteers just found out about the entire FIRST program two weeks ago and had so much fun on Thursday that he came back on Friday to help us again! - KathieK [more]
The quickest way to select a VEX gear ratio. This workbook quickly determines the best 1 or 2 stage VEX gear box needed to reach the desired gear ratio.
Complete code from the OCCRA and OCCRA VEX robots from the 2011 season, post-championship. Developed for the Vex Cortex control system and compiled in easyC V4.
I created these match schedules so that anyone wanting to have a quick scrimmage (without using IFI or FIRST's Tournament Managers) could easily pick up a good-enough match schedule from here.
I made this tutorial to show how to set up MPLAB so you can program your VEX robots using it. All of the materials needed are available for free (all can be maintained legally too).
Because of common software (Easy-C Pro), similar microprocessor architecture between the VEX controller (Microchip PIC18F8520) and FRC controller (Microchip PIC18F8722), a typical robotics team can compete against more established robotics team by successfully prototyping the 15 second hybrid (autonomous) period operation with a VEX robot.

It's a vex game me and Greg Perkins designed for a robotics camp. It is a mix from FRC2003 and FRC2006. It includes, 4 shooting squares, ramps, platforms, golf whiffle balls and high goals.
