something Ive learned over the years- some people work on a project, and some people DO a project

the whole idea of ownership - in every project that gets done there is usually one person who takes it on themselves to make it happen, who engages themself to the task, who makes it their personal responsibility

thing about this is: a person must have enough confidence in their skills and ablilities to be able to take ownership - when you have new people who dont understand everything the project entails, they will show up and poke at it, work 'on' it, but they wont have the self confidence to 'do' the project - to be responsible for it.

Im not talking about the bot as a whole - there are many subsystems that have to happen, that have to be assembled, and you can have several people each taking ownership for one subsystem - the drivetrain, the electronics, the SW, the pneumatics

maybe what you need to do is deligate responsibility to people who can handle the subsystems (if you have enough experienced people) - take them aside one on one and tell them, " I need you to take ownership of the pneumatics..." and make sure they know, if they dont make their subsystem work one way or another, then your team will have a fancy statue at the regional this year.
