I'm going to parrot what has been said but add a twist. Respect your mentors for the competition season. During the off season make an agreement, the students and the mentors will reprogram the robot and trouble shoot it in Labview. They will do this together. The reason is simple, both parties will learn something and gain a mutual respect for each other's abilities and strengths. I have never met a good mentor who thinks they know everything and can't learn from students.
