Re: Taking Robot out of Bag

Make lemons out of lemonade...

Its clear that you can take whats in the bag out and have a static display (no driving by competition drivers) for 4 hours. Leave the bot sitting on the bag, or the bag next to the bot by your display, and it will invite questions. This will give you an opportunity to talk about other key aspects of FRC, regarding how it is a mini version of a real world engineering project, with real world deadlines and contingency plans that involve working hard to make the bot complete at the competition.

Then, use lots of videos with a big monitor to show your best bots in action (unless you are a rookie team.. then show video of someone else's bot!)
