Don't get me wrong, I love the idea. It just seems like you reinvented the wheel a little bit for this application of it. |
Absolutely you can do this! And yes, there is a Labview function for this.
The reason we went with a switch is, well, because we don't always trust FMS to work correctly every time. Can you think of any examples from this year?
Additionally, we want to be able to set the color to track when not on FMS, like in demo's and off season competitions.
