Re: Why are they showing us how to build a chasis?

Don't jump to conclusions.

While it may look like a piece of cake putting that chassis together, I'm sure many people will have troubles. You should be glad FIRST is giving us these things and showing us how to use them. This may help level the playing field, and rookies will be able to be more competitive.

This also helps veterans. For example, you may think that the scripted programming feature makes it easy to program. There is still a TON of potential in being able to change the back end to that scripting program. FIRST is simply taking a great idea, that is used in the real world, and making it available to everyone.
