Lowes.Hello, all, Now that we will begin building parts of the robot for testing and competition, we need to focus in on rules which must be followed to even be allowed on the playing field. Passing inspection and having appropriate BOM paperowork will be a gate to playing. Knowing all rules and your specific subsystem thoroughly are key for interviews with all the judges who will be stopping by our pit to talk to you. We can start preparing by reading the Robot section of the documentation found here: http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedFiles/Robotics_Programs/FRC/Game_and_Season__Info/2011_Assets/04%20-%20The%20Robot_RevD.pdf My suggestions: a.. pp 2-4: All b.. pp 5-9: Bumper team c.. pp 9-16: All d.. pp 16-20: Control system e.. pp 20-21: Manipulator team f.. pp 21-26: Software team g.. pp 26-28: Manipulator team h.. pp 28-29: Software team/Control system i.. pp 29-30: All j.. pp 30-32: Minibot team As we build, any part that goes on the robot needs to make it to the parts list to be submitted at competition. Maybe we have an update to a posted sheet at the end of every lab session. Maria
