We do have quite a few small air tanks on or robot- we'll really be pushing the weight limit. My team got that huge Bimba one as well. We were thinking of using it for the minibot deployment because it was so long, but it was way to big, heavy, and inefficient.

Yeah! hey me and a friend were talking on FB a second ago and he had an idea... What if our team used 2 compressors? What if we used 2 completely separate systems for the Bimbas? one for the large bimba then another for all the rest of the smaller ones?
