Team 1382 has 26 students and about 10 mentors (engineers, teachers, & school staff). All students show up on a regular basis (daily) although some of them stay longer than others and most show up on saturdays and sundays...But there are days when there´s not much work and about 15-20 people are actually doing something useful...(the other members are there, however, they will usually be playing tetris or pinball

)
I think around 30 people overall on a team is a good number to have because the work is well-distributed & it´s not as difficult to communicate w/each other.. Team 1382 is split up into 5 groups:
6 students - marketing/public relations
3 st. - autodesk inventor
4 st. - 3d animation
6 st. - mechanics
7 st. - electronics & programming
