You can get started with the new FRC control system stuff now. The following are current prices:

cRIO 9074 - $2999
Power Supply & Cables $249
9201, 9403, and 9472 Modules and Cables $1219
Subtotal Total Hardware $4467

Software:

Labview for Windows $4099
Labview Real-Time Module $2499
Labview FPGA Module $2499

Subtotal Software $9097

Total $13,564

The above doesn't include the custom undocumented digital sidecar so the above would only get you started on the tool chain and sensor platforms.
Not if you ask nicely, it isn't.
So far, most teams already have the software. I know our team has at least the base program and the RTM because of our participation in the DAQ project, and i also have a subscription to the NI developer stuff through some of our mentors.

so the subtotal could come out to $0 to $2500 if you ask properly.
