Re: Do you use 3d printed mounts?

We use a great deal of 3D-printer mounts! It seems as though we're constantly making more. We've used them for everything from air tanks to pressure gauges to Talon SRXs to limit switches to cameras,...

Thumbs up Re: Most Unlikely Places You've Found FRC People

Re: Best Ways to Scout

At most events I've been to, cell reception has often been spotty at best. We also investigated Bluetooth, but were put off by price and hassle.
