Re: Must Return Spare Parts to Small Parts?

I think that guy made a mistake - they only lend out RCs and OI and other major componets, but you can also buy parts that are on hand if they have enough

taking back the team color led panels? that silly! Those things were getting smashed all day - I hope they have a crate of them somewhere for the rest of the events!

Re: Must Return Spare Parts to Small Parts?

I think it is only certain components. We were not asked to bring back the banner senors. We did have to give back the victor we borrowed. It all depends on how many they have and the worth.

No, they don't have a crate of them.

At STL there were no spare team color LED panels available. If you were lucky enough to have spares available at a regional event that you attended, then I would hope you would be gracious enough to return any that you borrowed.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Re: Must Return Spare Parts to Small Parts?

in previous years the expensive innovation FIRST parts that were being lent out were painted red - you could spot them a mile away

Re: Must Return Spare Parts to Small Parts?

I remember having to pay for some spare parts (drill motor gear boxes) as far back as 2000. I know in STL, they made an announcement that they would be billing your credit card if you did not return parts (for those that they required a CC to check out).

As for the blinky lights, they run about $12 from IFI. A crate of them per regional would be pretty expensive. And, they seem to be a fairly consumable item.
