I have many opinions on this, but I have to say, the Coach should not have let those students be apart of the team going. (As long as it was clearly expressed).
I know many teams have done Identical Robots but I think that it was more of two (or three
) completely different teams joined together. It seams that this was a signle team at one point, and then they became two differnet teams? (I dont mean for this season I mean for the teams existance). Would 48 and 3139 be able to shine a light into how they did it this year? Even though the robots werent Perfectly Identical.
