Re: [DFTF] Brave Pneumatic World...

My favorite valve setup for FRC is an SMC SY3000 series stack on a manifold. They have a 20+ page ordering guide that shows how the part numbers are broken down. It's rather complex. I don't have a link, but it shouldn't be too hard to find that document on their site.

The only real tip or trick I have is that you can do some neat things with some really tiny cylinders.
