Re: At what point does it become unacceptable for a mentor to design/build the robot
Speaking from my team's experience, the students are the ones who design, build, and test everything. What we as mentors try to do is help the students better understand why somethings work and others don't. We help them with learning the fundamentals of how things are created. As a former team member and now a mentor I feel like it is the students who should be doing the work and the mentor is there to guide them. If mentors were to take the aspect of robotics that students enjoy the most we would be missing the whole idea of FIRST, which is to inspire students in the fields of math and science through application
