When you are talking about those price gaps you can not expect the same presentation value.

Um... FTC takes up less than 1/5 of the area and resources FRC does so that's not a great argument you present. FTC annual registration doesn't include a KOP.

To anyone who is discouraged about their team, don't let yourself get down. I've seen my team go from having a robot that barely moved (and I'm not kidding, we had keys falling out of gearboxes) to this year with a robot that is ACTUALLY GOING TO WORK. Don't lose hope, stick with FIRST! - ZipTie3182 [more]
