Go to Post I think being successful in FIRST is creating an environment where people can grow, learn, change, and recreate... It's about making an environment where kids feel they can be successful... in whatever discipline they choose. - ColleenShaver [more]

Re: Corporations Build Robots - If You Don't Care, Stop Reading

A. if there are teams that have corporations or groups of adult mentors exclusively design and build the robot

- Yes, maybe, I don't know. It doesn't really matter to me either.

B. is this fact talked about in the FIRST community.

- Too many times.

... You got 6 weeks to build the robot. Some teams have time to train the students, some don't. Some teams have mentors who get their hand dirty and the students follow them to get their hand dirty as well and some teams don't have a single engineer.

Individuals have their own opinion and I personally would worry about how my teams will get through those 6 weeks to come up with a product rather than worrying about what other teams are doing. Whether you like it or not, teams you are competing against will be on the other side of the field with the best they got and you will be out there with the best you could come up with in the 6 weeks.
