Re: Supporting the FIRST organization through growing pains
Well the other issue is, VEX is completely out of VEX parts. FRC/FTC are composed of parts NOT by one manufacturers but a collaboration of a bunch of them.
TBH I think FRC/FTC are cooler, the fact that you get to work with different equipment and honestly, while I do feel bad for all teams (not only Einstein) that have had problems with the FMS/FCS, I think it's a unique learning experience. Kinda still shows you that there is always improvement to the Science and Technology we have today, which is exactly what we're trying to do in FIRST.
