Re: Where to buy a new 9403 module?

However, it is only the chassis, and does not include any modules. The NI website has them for well over $300, and we are curious if there is a way to get an FRC discount (Andymark does not carry them) or if we will be paying full price...

Apologies if I have missed something obvious...

Thanks,
Joe, FIRST Team 1247
I'm also looking for the same thing. Over in this thread Saberbot has an email out to NI. I've also sent a PM to Chris Rake to NI although I'm not sure if he's active.

Teams definitely need an option to purchase the module(s) at a reasonable price to accompany the new 8-slot cRIOs...it makes no sense that a new 4-slot cRIO plus modules is cheaper than buying the modules alone.
