Re: The new 4 slot cRIO-FRCII

Our team is pretty set on getting a new 4-slot mostly because we've been wanting a second unit for a little while, and this is a slightly cheaper way to go. It will definitely be going on competition robots since it is smaller and a bit lighter. It's also a bit more powerful, but as pointed out, that's hardly a consideration as they're way overpowered already (until you start running LabVIEW... another thing we might look into changing). The old 8-slot will migrate around on old robots, practice robots and the like, and we also shouldn't forget that we have two perfectly good IFI systems lying around.
