FRC 7461 Sushi Squad Design Training

Hello,

My name is Max, and I am the Design Lead of Sushi Suqad 7461. Over the past two years, we’ve observed that there’s often a lack of resources for rookie teams and teams without design experience, which means students on those teams aren’t able to get the same experience that those on more established teams do. Having been a rookie team not so long ago, this has been super apparent to us when comparing the pace our new members learn at now, vs 2 years ago.

In an attempt to help teams without that experience, we’re going to be making all of our CAD and Mechanical Design training free and open to the public, with a comprehensive introduction to designing for FRC, as well as some basic projects people can do to improve their skills. All of our CAD is done in Onshape, however most of the material should be applicable to other software as well.

All of our sessions will be streamed on twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/heatblast016 every Saturday at 6:00pm PST, and we have a discord server https://discord.gg/7kv7Bk for people to ask questions. Our training streams are free and will be recorded for future use.

Our first stream will be tomorrow (9/19) at 6:00pm PST.

We are super excited to be seeing you guys soon!

We’ve been meaning to get to it for quite some time now, so hopefully it’ll end up being a useful resource for teams!

Day 1 VOD is up at https://youtu.be/j3cD9Nhn_5s. We’re still working on getting our streaming/recording setup dialed in, so there may be a few hitches or audio issues.

Announcement: From now on, training streams will take place on Sunday at 6:00pm PST instead of Saturday.
