Very nice and clean set up of your electronics.

Are most teams planning on adding lexan covering to their systems this year? Don't know if it'll be as much of a priority because of the better protected Jags.
I personally would want protection of some from of the analog and solenoid breakouts, wether it be the cRIO mounted sideways in the bot and covered with lexan or put in a lexan box... either way, those guys are a great target for another 'bot to come along and slice it in two. Every year our robot's electronics have been completely covered in lexan/polycarbonate with no overheating issues of any kind. I really reccomend that many teams do this, as I saw countless robots being disabled for a match after having their electronics penetrated by another robot, usually with fatal results.

Thanks for the great comments guys! Look out for us in FLR, GTR and the Championships!

Nick
