2015 Kit Bot Build Day

From Kit to running Bot in one day!

New Control System - RoboRIO

This is an important event to help rookie teams get their FRC build season off to a good start, but veteran teams that want help with the new control system are also welcome. Experts from around Southern California will be available to demonstrate, help and teach teams to build working robots from their Kit of Parts. Experts will lead your team through Frame and Drive Train assembly, Electronics mounting and wiring, Programming, and Operation. By the end of the day, each team will have built and be able to drive their own working robot.
