Re: Creating and selling parts.
Well, there is one little thing. In racing, speed is measured in cubic dollars. In FIRST, success is measured in cubic skill. It's been said--your robot can be amazing, but you'll do nothing if you don't know how to drive it. Plus what will you do when something breaks? I'll bet that if this became the norm, some team would get too "soft" and realize this exact problem all too late. At that point, it'd come down to either ghettofab or hoping some other team at the regional runs that system.
