Design with Purpose. Compete with Confidence.

This guide introduces high school students and mentors to the essentials of macro robot design for the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC). Whether you're part of a rookie team or looking to strengthen your foundation, this book breaks down key mechanical systems-drivebases, intakes, indexers, flywheels, catapults, arms, lifts, multi-axis arms, claws, power sharing techniques-and explains how to design them with strategy and functionality in mind.

Through easy to understand introductions, images of CAD examples, practical tips, and competition-based solutions, readers will learn not just how to macro design a robot, but how to approach FRC challenges with design thinking and engineering discipline.

Ideal for students eager to contribute confidently, mentors seeking structured teaching tools, and educators supporting STEM initiatives, this book empowers every team member to confidently participate in the Kickoff Meeting on Game Drop Day.
