Re: Looking for 2005 or 2006 Robot Controller

There are technically two 2004 controllers, either of which could be useful. The "mini" controller does in fact use EDU code, but that doesn't preclude it from being useful.

If you're using the mini-RC, you can use it to teach freshman autonomous mode, unless you want to invest in the R/C control system you'd need to make it tele-op capable. Even standalone it's invaluably useful for teaching programming, and testing out little designs.

If it's the regular RC, you're golden, just update to master v12 and start working with the full size 2005 default code (2006 would need some conversion, it's well documented you can try that as well if you'd like. Might be a good freshman project.)

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
