With this in mind, I wonder if FIRST would consider making it legal to connect a solenoid to the other half of the relay driving the compressor (currently illegal under R39D & R42 last year). A compressor and 3 solenoids would be sufficient for many team's pneumatic needs. They could use one of these new relays and save weight on the digital out (solenoid) cRIO module. We will see in a year or so...
