Doh, I was out of it apparently, I meant to say IFI and RadioShack (but I understand they also no longer own the copyright and never really did the design work).

Regarding the wrenches, they shouldn't strip that easily in the first place (and destroying the limited number of screws while we are at it - motor mounts come to mind). Just something that we learn from trial and error I guess. With the pneumatics, I was shocked to even see them available. When I told the rest of the group I was building Ballistic Jr. with, they said that it was "hardcore".

Thanks for the correction, and keep up the good work IFI (easyC is great software, though )
