: How are you instructors / engineers overcoming the urge of the students to do a 'battlebot' and the whole battlebot mentality? I've tired to tell them that our 'bots are WAY cooler than those. It's like designing and building an Indy car versus a Demo derby junker.
I agree with you partly. I feel that what we do is way cooler. But they also have to take into consideration everything we do. What makes ours better is that we have limits on what we do, making it more challenging (weight limit, size limit, etc.). They have limits that re easier to meet than we do.
