Re: Sad day, FIRST now FIRLP
I don't know about you, but I personally think $275 is a very reasonable price for the FTC program. Think about how they have to pay the GDC, FIRST affiliates, etc... I don't think $275,000 (rounding up the total teams), is actually enough to pay the expenses of running an operation like FTC. I personally think that without FRC, the registeration of the FTC program would increase immensely to maintain the same quality.
That being said, I don't mind FIRST striking a deal with lego as long as the registeration price remains around $275.
