IFI is a VENDOR => VEX Controller is a COTS electronic component => compliant(<R45>)=.TRUE.
$150 < $200 => compliant(<R49>)=.TRUE.
Don't know about compliance with <R51>. Can you run a VEX controller from a 12V battery? Specs say 7.2V, and draw is 62mA for the controller and receiver. Since the receiver can't be used, maybe the draw is a little less.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
