module 7 of 8
Deep-dive techniques used by top FRC teams: configuration-driven and FeatureScript-automated parametric design, browser-based FEA for weight-optimized structures, system-level swerve geometry and motion math, and a case study of FRC 6328's modular gusset-and-tube methodology. This module assumes you already know Onshape fundamentals and pushes toward how elite teams actually design fast and well.
Advanced Techniques & Case Studies closes the CAD & Design guide as module 7 of 8, after Common Mistakes & Troubleshooting. Its 5 lessons are about 215 minutes of the guide's ~18 hours.
