Also, consider what this does to the receiving team's reputation, both inside and outside the team.
I mention this because last year, my current team's robot was cheesecaked with a major mechanism by a powerhouse team. We went on to win the event with them.
However, the members of my team who talk about winning that competition have found themselves shamed by new members because "they didn't build the robot that won, they borrowed it". I honestly believe that major cheesecaking is almost never beneficial in the long run, and your resources would be better spent finding a team which is close to what you need and helping them perfect their bot. If your needed partner is nothing close to what any of forty teams have, you're strategizing wrong.
