Re: [BB] So, what about the Classmate?
I am very pleased to hear that items like the compressor will not be in the kit of parts. Team 75 has not used pneumatics since 2003 so we have a whole bunch of compressors just lying around. The kit apart seems like it is filled with only parts that are needed each year such as the new motors. This will allow veteran teams to save money because most veteran teams take the electronics out of the kit of parts and the rest goes in to storage and then eventually the junk box. This being said FIRST needs to ofter the ability for teams that may use more out of the KOP to purchase it online for a discounted price.

I love the new Classmate driver station, it should open up allot of possibilities for this season.
