<R2>
Robots must represent the Team’s skill level. The Robot must be designed, built, and programmed by members of the Team. Adults are expected to mentor and teach design, building and programming skills to the Students on the Team, but may not design, build, or program that Team’s Robot. See rules <G2> and <G6>. In VRC, we expect Adults to teach fundamental Robot principles like linkages, drive-trains, and manipulators, then allow the Students to determine which designs to implement and build on their Robot. Similarly, Adults are encouraged to teach the Students how to code various functions involving applicable sensors, then have the Students program the Robot from what they have learned.
