Which is Truely cheaper?

FRC or FVC?

Read before voting.

10 years down the road, is FVC still cheaper then FRC?

Here's some thoughts i have been having lately.

FRC
  • $5000 Registration/Kit
  • $6000 Regional
  • ~$3,000 for Food and parts

FVC
  • $625 Kit + Registration
  • $300 Kit #2
  • $~500 Registration for event
  • $400 kit accesories.

That is the numbers for one year.

Now here lies the question. Over ten years is it cheaper to fo FRC then FVC?

The problem i see in FVC is that the registration fee does not include a kit every year like FRC. Plus the starter kit is not a whole lot and not much capable for a winning robot.

So in the end does FVC actually become cheaper then FRC in 10 years?
