EPIC Expedition
EPIC Expedition is an up-and-coming first-year FTC team organized under EPIC Labs Robotics, based at EPIC Masjid, Plano, Texas.
We are a team of highly talented and motivated students who are eager to inspire others in make in impact in the world of STEM. In the short amount of time we've become a team that has already crushed a variety of tasks one-by-one and plan to continue doing so throughout the season. In collaboration with EPIC Odyssey, we are aspiring and striving to compete in national competitions, and eventually win the world championships
The world needs Expedition.
The Expedition of EPIC Labs FTC intends to promote cultural diversity in STEM. This happens by encouraging a deeper understanding of the STEM field through competitive events, while portraying the gracious professionalism of its team to the public. In turn, this inspires all of us to implement STEM in not just competitions, but in our daily lives as well.
Through opportunity creation and fostering a culture of sharing, the EPIC Expedition robotics team engages the youth and creates lifelong positive experiences for the team members.

Team Captain
Adil H
When I found out that there was a robotics team at a center that I regularly visited, I had no excuse but to try out. I have always been interested in STEM as it intersects every field of study in imperative ways. I believe that this welcoming and supportive team will teach me many skills that I will use throughout my career.
CAD - 3D Modeling
Aslam M
I am really enjoying my time on the CAD subteam of EPIC Expedition. I have always enjoyed the challenge of developing solutions to problems I may be faced with. I developed my passion for CAD in Middle School with the application called SketchUp. I was amazed at how easy it was to create 3D models straight from my imagination. I started to explore other softwares such as Fusion360 and SolidWorks which greatly expanded what I could do with 3D modeling and broadened my love for CAD even more. I am excited to start this next season and look forward to a great year of FTC!
