Re: $500 for a new showbot?

We built a showbot for UTC, for over 5000+.

Biggest suggestion: When working on a tight budget, given to you by others, FIRST list out all prices! It really helps when budgeting. Also with only 500, I would try and find a cheaper electronics system. Also I would use some of your older parts, that are still in usable condition.

Suggestion: Come up with a plan that is very impressive, list all prices, and then show the sponsor and ask for more in order to produce a quality product.
