[EricRobodox]

EricH nailed it on the head i think. only missing one more major pro though. Accuracy. You know exactly where the piston will stop and how far it will move. With motors, its a lot harder unless puting limits on it which is more time consuming. RoboDox have been using pneumatics every year almost since our start, and have been one of the first teams in FIRST to use them. This year we didnt use a compressor, which is legal. We charge it before each match. This saved a lot of weight and allowed us to be a unique robot as our actuators were not for shifting, but lifthing the balls. ahahaha. balls. ahahah. But i think pneumatics are very good, and people over look how much potential they have.
