I can't believe veterans here on CD are turning the Update into a VRC/FTC gripefest. This was a minibot challenge, not a PVC tube launching challenge. It's sickening that people are crying foul just because now they're forced to use a 'competing' or 'inferior' product. If you don't like the product because of principles, then don't do a minibot on principle. The rest of us who aren't strong-armed into one program or another will enjoy seeing the minibots make it to the top.

Karthik, Cory, if I didn't respect you two so much for your technical prowess and general logical GP practices I would be hard pressed to hold back the tirade I could type right now.
