Re: Pre-charging pneumatic system
When I teach a team new to pneumatics, I emphasize that each component should be leak checked extensively before installing it on the robot. I know that this advice is a bit late for your 2014 robot, but it has helped out team immensely over the years. As we typically check each component a week or two prior to installation, final installation is typically a function of hooking up the hoses, and doing a final pressure check.

FIRST is not rocket science. But it is like drinking from a fire hose.
