CANipede Experience?
Hey everyone,

So our team has been looking for a better way to improve our programming and ability to test our robots quickly. We are generally able to get the job done, but not without leaving at least 2-3 weeks time to do it using Labview. We noticed that the Robot in 3 Days project used a crosstheroadelectronics product known as the CANipede (http://crosstheroadelectronics.com/RCM.html) for quick and simple programming, as shown in their reveal video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfyzbV6k02A

So my question is has your team had any experience with the crosstheroadelectronics products? Is there a way you test your whole robot quickly once it is all built? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
