Re: [FRC Blog] Pre-Kickoff Virtual Kit Items

Ok, I see alot of teams are getting these pneumatic valves with the Automation Direct voucher. I have a couple questions about them.

AVS-5221-24D VALVE 4-WAY 2-POS Cv=0.78 24VDC 1/8in FNPT SPOOL DBL-SOL ALUM

Would they fit on the VEX manifolds, and if so, would that manifold(made for the lower flow VEX valves) restrict the flow more than the manifold that AD recommends?

VEX solenoids and manifolds

Any idea why they're so cheap compared to the ones on the VEX site? The flow rate is so much higher...
