I pretty sure that in the not too distant future, some company, people, or person will sell a full, high-performance, does-great-on-the-field, FRC robot (the moving vehicle, the software, and the operator controls). They will sell it in the form of a bill-of-materials, plus instructions, plus published software, plus parts ready to be assembled. They will offer it sometime in the middle of build season.
When that happens will FRC be alive and well? Or will that be the beginning of the end?
Discuss ...

I can see two things
-- The ads will say, "Act now and the first kits will ship with a free 3 member drive team.
-- The "mentor built robot" threads will be "kits assembled by mentors" thread
all which will occur well after the first water game. So I'm not worried about full kits like this for many years.
