Re: New R/C Chicken or the Egg

I'm not exactly sure what you're saying in some parts, but I think I have it right...

This would involve having entirely new solenoids, relays, speed controllers, etc... being manufactured, wouldn't it?

All of those are currently Off the shelf, and usually from a manufacturer that makes their money outside of FIRST. To have someone produce all these new, and rather unmarketable products seems a little much.

I know someone will have the make the controller anyway, but making the controller vs. an entire custom control line not marketable outside of FIRST is kind of different.

Please correct me if I'm wrong however, my reply was based entirely on my interpretation of your post.

EDIT: I think Kevin and I are making the same point.
