Make sure you have plenty of support from mentors or alum if you want to try it. That kind of knowledge will be helpful.

We need to check with our sponsor to see if we can build robots, but we have half a field built in our workshop at school we could run on.

I was picturing the entire team working to build one FRC robot, but it sounds like looking at multiple, smaller robots might be a better idea.
