Re: BEST Robotics
BEST is a good program, but is not as big as FIRST. The missions are similar, to get students interested in Science and Engineering. BEST robots are similar in size and complexity to FTC bots, teams are also required to keep an engineering notebook like they are in FTC.
I think that best is a good lower cost competition. I don't think it competes with FIRST directly (different build seasons?). Ultimately the two programs have the same goal, any success one has will help the other.
I believe there is some overlap in teams, it might be worth posting somewhere other than Chit Chat if you want more info but don't get many responses here.
