Not quite true... if you have the RC, you can download your code and debug without actually running any motors. This can be helpful for debugging interrupt handlers, for example.

However, your comments about the RC being part of the robot make sense. But then I'm wondering why FIRST would suggest that having the OI and joysticks would allow you to continue code development...
