Re: paper: FLL VRC FTC Cost Comparison Excel Spreadsheet

Why not add in Botball and BEST to this chart. Maybe Andrew L. could put some figuires into those columns and repost an updated version.

BEST $0.00 registration fee
$0.00 tournament fee
maybe $100 on extra parts
suggested mock field items will vary greatly from year to year.


BotBall $2,250 registration fee - includes only allowed kit of parts which is new each year. this also includes the tournament fee plus a two day teacher training. I think they've had options in the past were teams could re-use the controllers and save $100. I also think they may have added an reduced fee plan for registering additional teams. It has been four years since I've had a Botball team. $150 or so for PVC etcetera to build the field elements. Initial cost to purchase the 4x8 whiteboard and set up a the light for starting and stopping the robot if that is still the field control system.
