missing kit parts

[Jordan]

Some of the stuff you all are reporting missing came together outside of the kit boxes.

FileMaker, VisualStudio, the MSC book, and our light sensors came in a cardboard box.

Your operator interface, power supply, and radio came in your EduRobot kits.

But don't worry, I don't have the rest of the stuff either! ;-)

Most of the stuff you have or will get. We got the software about 3 weeks ago (includes animations) operator interface, radio, & joysticks came with EDUrobot (we got months ago some teams JUST got) most of the other stuff is in there... not sure on electrical connectors or valve though. We just got the extra sensors last thursday with the big book of everything on earth from MSC. FYI we paid the first day when we signed up. Other local teams paid last month & just got their EDUrobot. I hope for the best for all of you. GOOD LUCK!

We were also missing all of our pneumatics tubing and couldnt find any of the sensors from our bags, We also were figuring there may have been a whole nother box or something that could have been given out or may be shiped? has anyone gottan ahold of first and any official word? going to try get intouch them tommorow..

We are missing the same pneumatic stuff as everyone else, plus:
- Yaw rate sensor connector
- all software, including DVD of animations
- operator interface
- joystick controller
-operator radio modem
- connectors - 25 pin plus shield
- retroreflective tape
- 120 psi relief valve

Anyone else missing this?

I believe that the 120 PSI relief valve comes attached to the compressor. It is already threaded in the "B" port.

Im hearing two things......

a:The sensors came in the KIT
and
b: The sensors came with the EDU robot...

which one is it??

We seem to be missing a lot of things. We are missing all tubing-related pneumatic parts, the keystock for the couplings, the entire software package, the sensors, etc. I don't know what happened but the kit seems to be really disorganized this year... Has anyone heard from FIRST on this?

The sensors came in a yellow envelope with the big book. It had a giant label that said "BANNER SENSORS". It was small and light, make sure that you kept them or didn't push them aside.

The sensors came not in the kit or the edubot, but with the MSC catalog which should have been delivered a few weeks ago, or should be at your school waiting for you on Monday.

We did not receive a yellow envelope when we got the Kit of parts. Yet, nothing deliver so far. We are going to need to Call FIRST....

IT IS NOT IN THE KIT OF PARTS! It was sent with the big book from MSC.

[Adam Shapiro]

We still haven't gotten our MSC book! All this waiting around is driving me crazy...

[sanddrag]

We ordered an MSC book over the summer so we've got that already (their website is painfully slow)

What about the flexible shaft couplers? Where are they?

How about pneumatic cylinders? How many are supposed to be there and how many did you get? We got one.

From the KOP Inventory, page 35 of 47:

"Pneumatics Kit, Cylinder, Parker | 1.5" bore x 8" stroke; rear pivot mount | 1 | Various"

This is the only mention of a pneumatic cylinder (besides two reservoirs) being distributed with the Kit.

Along with above items not received , only received 10 of the 5/8 in. Torrington bearings, not 12 as in BOM. Missing 25 pin connector and boot also.
PS: 120#relief valve is on compressor already

If I recall correctly, 10 of the 12 bearings were packaged together in a shrink-wrapped set, and the remaining 2 were free-floating in the reclosable bag.
