Re: The BEST competition and FIRST competition. BEST was formed not because the founders of BEST thought that FIRST was becoming too commercialized but rather that to have a robotics competition that would be more affordable for teams. BEST is a good precusor for FIRST but does not offer the higher level of challenges that FIRST does. For example: you build a 24 lb. robot that fits into a 2 ft cube. You only have 4 globe motors to work with and a airplane radio controller. BEST is organized by a total volunteer organization that develops the game, does the administrative work etc. BEST has its share of problems and issues too.

I organize the regional for BEST and FIRST. They are both good competitions but definitely different.
