What would be so much better for your team is that if you called up each of the rochester area teams that are going to FLR and arrange a deal with them. Work WITH teams to design Mini-Bots that would work well, and treat it as a Fundraising opportunity for your FTC team. Promote your ability as a FTC team and see if any teams want to work some cooperation deal.

Maybe call up those at FLR and see if you can set up a booth for fixing and repairing FTC components in Mini-Bots, for free. It will GREATLY increase your reputation as a team among FIRST.

Don't just use CD, they all have websites with phone numbers, call them up! Get out there!
I didn't say at competition and the purpose of this thread is so that I can get an idea of whether or not there is a general interest among other teams. Although thanks for the advice.
