Out of curiosity, why did you choose the Pi?
Our team decided to go with doing all the computation on the driver station with Octave (A free MatLab clone), but we are doing some fairly heavy calculations. I am a bit worried about the bandwidth limit, but my other team members seem to think it'll be fine.
Also, I can't seem to load the GitHub page, but that's probably GitHub's fault
Sometimes I get a "Unicorn!" error, although once I got a Error 500.
