Coming from a team based in a very very small school (think 400 kids in grades 9-12), and limited funding, our students build most all of the bot. Starting out with a weeklong brainstorm in small groups, our team then comes together to get the best design possible. Our engineers were fantastic, ever before the season, they come in and run usthrough mini-labs to gie us the skills we will need for the upcoming season. They taught us everything we needed to know, they were the supervisors that made sure we didnt totally mess up each task, and helped out when necessary. By the time regionals rolled around, everyone could go over the robot inch by inch.

Whether or not each team has the engineers build the robot, or if the students do it, wat matters is that the students learn . The skills that we learn, not the robot, are what we will take with us from our experiance from FIRST.
