Re: i haave a quick question

HITEC HS-322 servos, FTC (VEX System) servos and motors (Innovation First 276-2162 and 276-2163), unlimited quantity (no limit specified, so assumed to be as many as you have output ports for).

Please note: This is from the 2008 manual and is subject to change for the 2009 game. I would expect it to change, because the VEX servos and motors are not used in FTC anymore to my knowledge. (Probably just a wording change...)

And for the other question, oz-in (along with N*m and ft*lb) is a unit of torque. 33.2 oz-in means that a servo can output 33.2 oz of force at one inch, or 1 oz of force at 33.2 in, or some similar combination in between, as long as the force times the distance is 33.2 oz*in.
