Re: 1.1 Pump (am-3227) Really an improvement?

How about a resource from two of the vendors we all use most?

motors.vex.com ..... The motor specifics that we use to design mechanisms.

and

pneumatics.andymark.com ..... People have trouble with spelling.
air.andymark.com ..... Sounds a bit too simple.
airmatics.andymark.com ..... Kinda catchy, but kinda strange.
(In short, I have not settled on a name.)

On this Andymark page, you can find specs and pricing on the most common FRC legal compressors out there. Teams can send in recommendations to Andymark about one that they use that is not featured on the site, and Andymark can add to the page or even sell it if they wish. There would be options to compare fill times for given sets of volumes across multiple compressors. Want more information? You can click on any compressor listed and see pricing, recommended vendors, and performance sheets. While we are at it, how about some nice looking performance graphs for visuals too.


Just an idea...
