Re: I'm confused! (VEX VS. FTC)
Its going to be hard for FTC teams to decide if they will do FTC next year or switch over to IFI's VEX competition.
Basically: FTC = more expensive and a new kit, VEX = less expensive and the VEX kit.
Also to really do vex right you need to spend $900+ on parts. Just for an example I would estimate that our robot was around $2000 this year (thats just the parts on the robot).
Now it might be the case that new FTC kit will include a lot of parts so less needs to be bought which would make the prices a little more even.

Reason: Changed price estimate of our robot after using vexlabs to build robot in cart and changed VEX to IFI's VEX competition.
