Re: BASH at the Beach

The Stop button, if not the solenoid, is unnecessary.
The Driver Station space bar is a much more robust and dependable method of stopping the robot in an emergency (or otherwise).

You can bypass the need for that silly plastic button by going to the Driver Station Diagnostics tab and double-clicking on the Stop Button entry text or light.
