ChapR Benefits: FTC Teams
• Convenient way of testing• Eliminates BT difficulties• Provides easy competition-style driving• Allows teams without access to multiple PCs
to test effectively• We have received great feedback so far, both
from teams at Worlds and through our website!

ChapR Benefits: Westlake
• Experience in product design, development and delivery (marketing, sales, manufacturing etc.)
• Chance to give back to the FTC community and spread STEM– Every 4th ChapR is given to a team in need for free– Service hours and experience for Westlake students
making ChapRs• Spreading the name of Westlake Robotics• Patent for WESTA (hopefully)• Something to talk about for awards

Plan
• Buy parts for 10 ChapRs (20 boards have been ordered)• Set up 3 soldering stations and train 6 people to solder
boards (3 of which would be the ChapR team)• Get back in touch with the people who initially showed
interest• Send a ChapR to Irad Allen at VHS and David Calkins at
Lego Education• Keep in touch with the beta testers and fix bugs if
necessary• Give 4 ChapRs to Westlake

What do we need?
• $450 total for 3 soldering stations• $1125 total for 15 ChapRs at cost– 5 to reimburse Coach Eric– 10 to build new ChapRs– $750 will be returned after the sale of the
ChapRs (minus the 4 that go to Westlake)
• A 501(c)3 nonprofit organization to accept funds and legally avoid taxes
