Competition Preparation

All teams should come prepared for the competition. Here are a few steps that every team should take to ensure that they are prepared:

1. Review the rules and run through the Flight Clearance Inspection checklist about a week before the competition so your team has ample time for adjustments. The inspection checklist and other competition documents can be found on the Documents tab. 

2. Pack for the event the day before, and remember to bring the following:

  • Drone and remote

  • Goggles/Safety Glasses

  • Spare parts & tools

  • Batteries and chargers

  • Programming cable

  • Power strip

  • Laptop computer

  • Competition Logbook

3. Remember that safety comes first.

  • NO flying outside of designated areas.

    • The first violation of this will remove you from judged awards.

    • The second violation will result in asking the team to leave.

  • Please don't bring tools that pose a safety risk to your team or others nearby.

4. Each player and coach/mentor must have a completed and signed Participation and Consent Form. These can be completed online or physical copies can be completed and uploaded to the coach's Robot Events account for each team.  These need to be completed and/or uploaded before the event.The Participant Release Forms are available under the Documents tab for this event.
