Re: Did you make a second robot? [POLL]

Last year we built a second chassis from an old c-base kit and withheld our mechanism to get a practice robot on the cheap. It worked out really well, but we spent a lot of time during the first day of regionals putting our robot back together.

This year we built two identical robots, and it helped. But when I look at our bills, and I read through this thread, all I can think about is how *incredibly wasteful* all these duplicated robots are! I know the bag rules have been debated to death, but I hope something changes in future to let teams be competitive without having to double their budget.
