I noticed those giant inflatable snowmen and Santas that eveyone seems to have on their lawns this christmas come in a box that is about 12" cubed

we'll find out in 2 weeks from................today! :c)

Seriously now.

What if the first and second year teams must fit into the two 12" by 12" by 12" boxes as the new size regs.

Vets. must fit into one 12" x 12" x 12" to make it harder.

??????????

Now on the other Hand, Since the new controller has said to be a lil more sensative then previous years, i am going to go out on a limb and say that the "box" not other cube will probablly contain the controll items. Now as to the cube everyone is getting, it may be a new component to this year and also it may just be the misc. box of velcro, nuts, bolts, any washers or spacers, and just odds and ends items... BUT WHO KNOWS...(Other then FIRST staff!) ;)

The batteries last year were packaged with sheets of styrofoam. I think we might still have the box, but i don't have access till school starts again.

I think i have a hypothesis to the whole cube mystery...I propose that the cube is stuffed full of drill motors...and clutches....

Judging by the light boxes on the right, the other various boxes around, and the concrete floor, I'd say the picture was taken at an event.

This picture was taken at the 2003 Peachtree regional parts table. I had to post this pic. It fit in sooo well.

Well, one of the few things I gained from working the spare parts desk at LA was the ability to recognize the conditions of a spare parts desk... Err... Nevermind.

Don't hold me to this but I believe the joysticks came packed in individual boxes. (about 12 X 12 X 12) And since old teams don't get joysticks this year. (to cut costs) It would stand to reason that is why the rookies get the boxes & the rest of us don't.

Rees2001 thats corect, we all have thought the same way and have almost come to a conlusion that the box that the rookies and 2nd year teams are getting will be the flight sticks but the cube everyone is getting we arent completly sure yet what it is. I personally think that the 12x12x12" cube that everyone is getting is the control system but thats just my thoughts...
