Re: pic: Robot in 3 Days: Complete
Completing a robot in 3 days is amazing, for any group of people. But do keep in mind that these were highly experienced mentors, who have a lot of a better sense of "what works" than the average group of high schoolers. Also, they had a shop with all of the right tools, and all the time they wanted (well, for three days). And they didn't need to worry about cost, or some FRC rules (bumpers, etc.)
This was an amazing, inspiring, and eye-opening project. Just don't expect this to be done in a similar amount of time by a group of less knowledgeable or well equipped people. A week, maybe, but not three days.
Please don't turn this into a "student built vs. mentor built" thread...
Oh, yeah, and I think Corry's right. This robot could easily become an alliance captain, at least at some regionals.
