@techhelpbb Just so I can communicate more effectively with FIRST HQ, you mentioned you already asked them. Have they sent you a response? If so, did they give a clear indication of whether they were supportive or against the idea?
The people I sent the request to are currently at the NI event.
Some of them doing Q&A.
So understandably they have their hands full.

I would give this a couple of days.

If we get specifics I'll be glad to toss a bit of resources at some solution to this issue. Actually I already did seeing as DigiKey is shipping super capacitors to me for later this week. If they say no I'll add it to the pile with the FIRST specific parts of the control system I designed for that same bid.

BTW the name is Brian.
