I totally agree with this… I started as a high school junior in tp season (no previous experience in competitive robotics programs, no previous experience in programming). I work on my robot 3 or 4 hours a day because I knew I’m a rookie and I’m far behind all the other team. If someone could simply tell me I should use competition template, I need an engineering notebook in order to win design award, there’s something called PID that greatly increase the accuracy of robot auton… If someone could teach me all the basic stuff I need to know instead of letting me figure them out in a hard way, I would have made it to worlds last season. It was extremely frustrating.
