Re: 2012 pneumatics air capacity

In addition to cost, the only thing that we can figure out is that you can only presurize with a compressor powered by the robot even if it is off board <R73>. Therefore you have to run your system between matches to refill the tanks.

Make sure that refill time is less than 5 minutes, because that is the time between matches in the semifinals.

If there is another interpetation of this rule, let me know.
