Hello everyone.
My name is yuval, and I'm the team leader of team MisCar 1574 from Israel.
In this year's regional event we were grateful to win the Engineering Inspiration award and are now preparing for the FIRST Championship.
But as you know, the preperation is very hard especially for teams outside the U.S.
Our first problem is transportation: There is a lot of equipment such as tools, spare parts and pit parts. If there is a team that can borrow us the following equipment, please contact me at Hardufy2@gmail.com:
Batteries (super important!)
Soldering iron
Red and Black wires (for power distribution)
And all kinds of hardware equipment
The second and our bigger problem is founding.
The registration for the Israeli regional costs 11500$ (more than most of the other regionals)
As opposing to american teams who have won the Chairman or the Engineering Inspiration awards, the registration for the championship is not covered by NASA.
And more than everything, the flight tickets are very expensive.
In total each student have to pay more than 2000$.
If you can support us in any way, by contacting us with a sponsor, or in any other way. Please please please contact me at Hardufy2@gmail.com
We will be very grateful for any help! See you in St. Louis.
