FRC Teams – we have firmed up the Regional schedule and are locked in for Week 4!
Mark your calendars for 22-25 March 2023! More to follow….
Webinar: Modular Robot Design optimized for shipping
Since already-expensive robot shipping costs have only gotten higher, I wanted to offer an opportunity to learn more about how to build a modular robot that can be disassembled for shipment as excess airline baggage. There is a very experienced team out of San Diego (1622) who attended our regional a few years ago and has offered to host a webinar on modular robot design. Please let me know if you are interested, and I’ll set something up!
Thanks to those of you that have already responded. I’ll share a date for that when it’s scheduled.
Aloha,
MICHAEL COLLAT
