Re: pic: Team 303 Spider Robot
I'm interested to see how the pneumatics will stand up to hours of continuous usage. Unless you specifically bought a compressor with a 100% duty cycle, many of the common compressors used in FIRST will only work at 10% of max efficiency after 10 minutes of continuous usage. When we bring robots to community events, we always try to bring ones without pneumatics. Otherwise, we have to give the robot frequent pneumatic cool-down breaks and even then we still sometimes melt the plastic tubing.
