OK, so here's the deal:

in most superheroes team, each member is as strong or capable as the rest. Each one contributes SOMETHING to the team.

The Mistery Men? Sure, it was parody (like this movie), but all of the members were useful in some manner. There's the Spleen, who can knock out villains with his farts. There's Mister Furious, who stronger the angrier he gets (like the Hulk, but he doesn't get bigger or green). There's the Blue Raja, who can stab villains with his forks (getting stabbed with a sharp fork is just as bad as getting stabbed with a knife). There's the Bowler, who has a bowling ball possessed by the ghost of her father. There's the Shoveller, who can bash villains with his magical indestructable shovel. There's Invisible Boy, who can just hide while everyone else is fighting, turn invisible, and then sneak attack the villain. And the most powerful one, the Sphinx, who can cut all guns in half with his mind (yes, he's the most powerful. Most street level villains use guns to fight the superheroes, and most alien invaders fight using a laser gun of some sort).

The Avengers? You have Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man, and the Wasp (fans of the character, like me, know that she can grow to giant size and has done so on several occasions, she's not limited to JUST shrinking). Even the Wasp's replacements (Black Widow and Hawkeye) still have guns and a bow, respectively.

Even in the Big Five, you have Hiccup (who is not only a Vvking, which means he's born and bred for combat, but he has a giant ferious dragon at her side), Rapunzel (with her awesome hair powers), Merida (an excellent archer), Jack Frost and Elsa (both of whom can control ice and snow).

What I'm getting at is...

...what the hell does Baymax contribute to the Big Hero 6?

He's a poofy, Michelin Man-looking doofus who doesn't seem to be aware of his surroundings. Putting him in a suit of powered armor will only make it worse, he'll likely not even hit the villain and end up destroying half of the city in the process. And if the villain finds a way to disable thearmor, you are left with a poofy idiot who's as useful to a superhero team as Queen Latifah is to a basketball team.

Really, Baymax just gives me Wendy-Marvin-Wonder Dog flashbacks. Remember Wendy, Marvin and Wonder Dog? Thwo annoying non-powered non-skilled kids and their dog who were added to the Superfriends because Batman owed Wendy's mother a favor or some stuff like that. They were useless, they just got in the way, and the Superfriends wasted no time getting rid of them so the Wonder Twins could take their place. Oh, and Wendy and Marvin later appeared in the comics...and Wonder Dog ended up mauling them and putting them out of commission immediately.

I'm sorry, but I don't see how the Big Hero 6 can be remotely sucessful with Baymax on the team. Even Die Fledermaus wasn't a slack-jawed moron like Baymax.
