Re: Practice bots: OK with rules/spirit of competition?
One thing you have to consider: resources. Do you have to money, time, manpower to build a second robot? Its not prohibited in any way, but considering the fact that you only have 6 weeks and a limited budget, its almost impossible to have a decent robot for the competition while making a practice robot. Unless you are making the practice bot just a chassis with wheels. Especially being a rookie team. While most veteran teams have robots from previous years, most rookie teams do not have that luxury.
