We are FRC Team 5212, the TAMSformers! This is our 8th year competing in the FIRST Robotics Competition. EVERYONE IS WELCOME, with or without experience. We will dedicate the first semester to teaching you guys all about robotics and the engineering process. Everything from mechanical to electrical to programming, we got you covered. We will compete in FIRST in the spring. Even if robotics isn't your thing, you can still be apart of our team. In fact, we NEED you! We have a business and marketing portion in charge of writing award submissions, looking for grants and sponsors, taking photos and videos, and managing our social media. We will also be mentoring various FLL (FIRST Lego League) teams in the Denton area, will be reaching out to help other teams nearby, and working alongside the other sectors of [[Junior Engineering Technical Society|JETS]] in multiple other volunteering projects. | We are FRC Team 5212, the TAMSformers!

We are FRC Team 5212, the TAMSformers! This is our 8th year competing in the FIRST Robotics Competition. EVERYONE IS WELCOME, with or without experience. We will dedicate the first semester to teaching you guys all about robotics and the engineering process. Everything from mechanical to electrical to programming, we got you covered. We will compete in FIRST in the spring. Even if robotics isn't your thing, you can still be apart of our team. In fact, we NEED you! We have a business and marketing portion in charge of writing award submissions, looking for grants and sponsors, taking photos and videos, and managing our social media. We will also be mentoring various FLL (FIRST Lego League) teams in the Denton area, will be reaching out to help other teams nearby, and working alongside the other sectors of JETS in multiple other volunteering projects.
Sectors
Robotics splits up the work into Sectors. Each sector focuses on a specific aspect of the FRC competition. Students can participate in as many or as few sectors as they want.
(Someone please change the sector descriptions into paragraphs, not lists)
Strategy

Design
- Involves CAD
- Modeling, assemblies, drafting, simulation. CAM
- Interlinked with engineering
Engineering
- Learn about power tools and basic building practices
- Learn how to make different robotic mechanisms
Electrical
