All I am saying is that we were a heavy MPLab team years before, switched to easyc pro this year and got a lot of work done.

Using mplab is great, but don't down play teams that use easyc pro. The orignal question was "What is Easyc good for?" We had the camera, gyro, quad encoders and IRs all working with easyc and felt we could develop faster using it and more important pass it on to our new team members.

Often what is a "best" is one of preference. All I am saying is easyc pro helped gives us a winning bot. Could we have done it in MPlab, YES!

But we decided easyc pro not only does not hold us back (one of our fears when we started), but made it easier for us.
