Re: How many teams are 100% student built
We are probably have 95% student work to 5% mentor work. We rely on our sponsors (Midwest Fluid Power and R&D Tool) for a lot of design work, ordering of parts, and custom machining (like a gearbox we are getting made). However, I, as Build chairman, and my partner in crime, Dan, make all the final decisions on stuff like designs, parts, etc. But 99% of the time, we're around the rest of the build team to get their opinion as well. As for actually assembly...we do probably 95% of that too because we always welcome the helping hands of a mentor to put parts together.
