your electronics aren't wired yet...

and if you have a bunch of tanks, how much pressure are you planning on storing? and are you using two regultors or is the one on the tanks the relief valve?

Hey guys, that looks really cool. Are you guys putting you robot controller in there or are you going to place it somewhere else?

Thanks for your comments. Yeah, I know we're not wired yet! :yikes: Hopefully the wiring commences tonight. The RC is going to be placed on a "mezzanine board" above the power electronics . As for the pneumatic half of the system, we wanted to populate it with the full complement of 4 cylinders, but can be easily reconfigured to 2 in minutes by removing 2 tanks via a couple of quick disconnects. All I/O connections (including pressure) will be quick disconnects on the front of the box, except for main battery umbilical in the back near the battery. Will try to post new pic as it nears completion, we're trying to get done early this week to goto Suffield Scrimmage on Saturday.:ahh:

duh, they're going wireless.:rolleyes: It's all the rage.;)

P.S. good luck with the two-tier system, we did that last year and it was a mess. Of course that was our rookie year, and we didn't have an electrical mentor. Oh well, at least the thing still actually drives (that is, when the programmers aren't wiping the code on it - it happened last week).
