For FVC, our team (1070) builds it in a small classroom...or each other's houses.. at that point.. with very little parts.. it's pretty easy. and our students build our FVC bot. so i'm proud of us
.
For FRC, since we are definitely talking about a lot of BIG machines and bigger parts.. then we work at a lab at CSUN, cuz our high school doesn't have one for us. and our students build the robot, with a little help from our mentors for ideas and tips on if we're doing something wrong. But YES we build our ROBOt!
