Re: Who is building 2 robots

I agree that 2 robots would be amazingly helpful, especially with autonomous. However, I know that for my team... we can barely scrape by with the money we have now. We can barely afford to purchase nuts and bolts at ACE Hardware, much less build an entire 2nd robot. It's just not possible. This is where the teams with big budgets have a much better advantage... and I think a reason why big budget teams often have much nicer robots, we just have no possible way of doing this with our budget.
