Re: Which is Truely cheaper?

Get your numbers right first!
FRC:

$6000 registration + 1st regional
$4000 /regional for all other regionals
$5000 for Championships.

Also, I believe VEX teams don't have to get a whole new control system. This means that the cost of the robot drops for them after their first year.

FVC is cheaper.
