Re: why sooo many bad robots in 07
There is a limit. $3500. That's how much you can spend in parts for your robot. The rest is money for equipment, travel, events etc. Some teams are "lucky" to have good sponsors, machine shops etc while others don't. I do not think money is as much of an issue because there are always ways to find equipment and resources. When building a successful robot, it is the engineering mentorship/knowledge that comes in handy. However, more money is always good.
