Re: Why do teams voluntarily do FIRST without adult technical mentors?

Having a fully built student robot is very commendable in my opinion.
I personally would be happier with a robot that was built by the students at Wheeler High School and the help of the students at GT that didn't do so hot vs. a robot that was built by a set of engineers that did well.

Would I personally be inspired by engineers building my teams bot? Not really.

Would I be inspired by the fact that a group of students could put together a functioning robot. Yes. Maybe thats just me.

To me, as long as I am having fun, then everything is fine with me.
