The Quest for Einstein - Chief Delphi

Some people use Autodesk, some SolidWorks, some Pro-E, but 772 rose to the call of an unconventional CAD language, Minecraft. - Walter Deitzler [more]

Re: The Quest for Einstein

Money - I am going to have to disagree on this one. Yes money does help, but doest it directly influent success? I don't think so.

Resourcefulness - I believe this is one of the most crucial things in FIRST. You may not have a lot of cash or other fancy things, but its how you use your resources to their greatest ability. I have seen some many successful robots built with a reciprocating saw and a dewalt. Now, of course it may not be the most efficient or prettiest, but it sure could get the job done.

It may be a surprise but, money does not automatically buy you a great robot in FIRST.
