I will tell you a secret. The technology we use on the FIRST team is scraping edge - that box of junk they give you at the kickoff, compared to what is available for commercial and military engineering projects, NONE of it would be usable - you would never see a probe landing on Mars with drill motors or Victor speed controllers
Actually, I think you are comparing apples to oranges. The equipment that we receive is just designed for hobby use and it is pretty high tech in that regard.
