Re: Poll on who builds your teams robot.
Definitely student-built on our team.
Our first two years, we've had only two or three of what would be called mentors. There's been the team leader, a technology staffer, and a few visiting engineers and a college robotics teacher. This was mostly because our "coach" has been hell-bent on the prospect that in FRC, the point is that the students are the brainstormers, designers, builders, testers, and everything else, and the mentors have been there as chaperones. Sure, that's not far from what the real point is, but you should be able to see the problem. This year, if we manage to raise enough money to compete (we're at about $3100 right now, and we have til mid-December [FIRST gave us an extension] to get to the $5000) the entire robotics class from the nearby college wants to come help us. In the context of this poll, though, students have built the robot.
