FIRST is again mirroring real life. And in real life, when we build and design robotic and automated systems, it's safety first. Hitting a human in real life loses a lot more than 30 points.

The robots are just vehicles taking kids on a ride to STEMville. |

It takes a special kind of lunatic to be the school sponsor/mentor for an FRC team; when you get one be thankful. |

BEING a chairmans team is alot more important then WINNING the chairmans award. |

There is something completely respectful and amazing to see FIRST teams who have members go through 4 years of the program without winning a single competition or even a single award. Those are the teams that are looked at by others and respected for what they do. |

FIRST has given thousands of young people (like me) a head start in life because it teaches honesty, integrity, and an appreciation of other people's hard work. |

This isn't just a robot competition, it's not robots driving robots. It's people driving robots, and teams of people who have put a lot into making the robots work. |

Instead of giving us some wood and nails and saying "build us a box", they're handing us power tools and saying "now make us something cool" |

There's so much to say about a sponsor who gets involved and cares about your team over one who just signs a check. |

The magic in a competition isn't finding creative ways to make an opponent lose, but finding even more creative ways for you to win. |

The GDC probably took bets on how many posts they could get off of a random CAD render, and bonus points for how many people go insane from thinking about it! :yikes: |

Everyone who has posted on this thread has brought about a lot of different ideas to the plate. Before it was just a simple 1 course meal in my mind. But when you post something on CD with tons of engineers and engineers in the making, your bound to have a feast!! |

When a team is composed completely of robot builders and technical people that team cannot exist just like a company cannot exist if it is only made up of engineers. |

It's in the RUMOR MILL section, hence it is a RUMOR. Personally I find it entertaining to see what gets started in this particular forum section and have people go off the deep end. |

Wow, 3 people able to draw their designs using text in a script processor program. I guess I wasted my time learning all that CAD software |

The version that finished nationals was about 50% aluminum and 50% the original PVC and we never had any member break. (structural member, not team member). |
