Selling a product in the first place is difficult, selling it to the very limited market of FRC teams even more so.

Indeed. I've been busy gleaning pictures from out media division. Here are some. We don't have all that many, actually. But here are a few.

One of my CAD models. The box with the curly stick coming out of the top is our battery cart/charger design, it's not part of it.


We usually had people from other teams just hanging out in our pit. It was pretty cool. Here's a rare shot with few people in it.


And here is a simpler picture that more accurately shows how roomy it is. The grey stuff on the floor is a floor mat. It was the second thing people commented on, other than how spacious it was.


The List of things included in the pit has not yet been finalized. However, pretty much everything you see is included, save the aforementioned chargercart.
Hope this helps!
