Well, I speak the obvious.....but, SMC and FIRST must deal with the extra weight problem. Raising the weight limit on the robot by 5 or 10 lbs would help. The pneumatics kit was really a very nice package last year, but......weight was an issue. It seemed such a shame to let those parts from SMC just languish in the crate.

I am expecting amps problems this year (too much! ack!), especially from the Kiyangs, and pneumatics could relieve some of the burden.

We would like to use pneumatics, but we'll sacrifice them again if we have weight problems again.
