Re: [FTC]: FTC Expands the kit of parts option for next season
We spent some time at the booth talking with the Matrix people. Their system is based on 9V not 12V so even though the parts might integrate mechanically (Matrix is based on an 8mm grid while tetrix is based on a 32mm grid) the electrical components would likely require a separate set of wiring for power.
I was told that the 9v motors are slightly less powerful than the tetrix 12V motors we are currently using. They also have built in encoders. I would be interested in seeing what options we have to connect multiple motors in parallel on a single circuit and control them with a single shaft encoder the way we do with our tetrix motors.
