Is there something inadequate with the one that came in the Kit of Parts?

I was told it wasn't as reliable as we would like, but I'll be sure to do some testing anyway.

Thanks, but I don't think the robot would like meat integrated into its electronics... although a bio-mechanical robot isn't a bad idea for this year's competition haha

These were the cheapest I could find, but if you want to look at sensors these are the sites I usually use
http://www.robotshop.com/
http://www.sparkfun.com
http://www.makershed.com/
http://www.adafruit.com/

Much appreciated, I'll be sure to put these sites to good use.

Thank you Kevin, I'll be sure to contact him if we need further help.
