Re: Largest team?
Last year 1676 had 52 students who stayed through build season. This year we have about 42 returning and 50 (!) freshmen. We expect that 30 of those 50 will drop out before kickoff (our "Pi-Tech" requires some commitment) and a few more during the season, so we'll probably end up with about 55 active students.
Not everyone builds the robot. We have active non-tech teams as well - awards & business, for example.
We are organized in teams and subteams, mechanical usually being the largest with three subteams, drivetrain, chassis and manipulator. Late year we had 5 mechanical subteams (3 manipulators: Kick, Ball Handler and hook/winch), electrical, pneumatic, programming, and probably 3 or 4 non-tech subteams. The subteam leaders keep people productive (mostly).
