Re: Removable Electronics

our team didn't do it this year, but we wanted to put all of the electronics on a removeable board. to take them out, we would just unscrew the board from the robot base. for all wires going to places, we were going to use terminal blocks, and we would just have to unscrew them. now, after reading this thread, we could have bought plugs (i'm almost thinking of, like, a 7-pin trailer hitch plug or the likes) that we would just have to unplug. we would need only...maybe 2 or 3? the only things that are off of the board really are the wires going to the motors and sensors....everything else (victors, spikes) are on the board already....
