CAUTION: Do not connect the R/C PWM IN ports to anything other than a standard radio-control receiver. The voltage from the full-size FIRST Robot Controller PWM OUTPUTS is too high and will damage the EDU RC, voiding your warranty.

What about using last year's EDU controller? It runs off of 7.2V like the new EDU controller. Maybe we could use that as the radio interface?

While I think it's great that they are going to the R/C controller, I wish they could have made it easier for the teams to adapt. Not everyone has people with R/C experience on their team. I would have no idea what to buy if it weren't for the CD forum. I hope InnovationFirst puts a link up for info and/or purchase on possible R/C controllers.
