 Polycord. It was used in all sorts of ball systems in 2009, and on some of the 2007 claws. It's not too hard to fuse together by hand with some heat and patience. - AustinSchuh [more] |

Re: [FTC]: Motor encoders Love'em? or leave'em?
I don't think this question can be asked so broadly.
They're hugely necessary in some instances, useless and redundant in others. You should analyze your situations and decide what's best for it.

Re: [FTC]: Motor encoders Love'em? or leave'em?
We've never had good luck with them, they are not accurate. Program it to go to the same spot every time, but it rarely does. I also agree they are too delicate. I just don't understand why Tetrix can't come out with a DC motor with a good encoder built in.
