Re: Disappointing Autonomous

I believe that FIRST's reasoning was not to throw programmers two curves in the same year. It is true that the new microprocessors will be much more powerful, but they will definately take some getting accostomed to. They decided to give us one year to warm up to the new microcontrollers, and I think next year will be the vast change in autonomous sections.
