KOP question re 2015 control system

[mhaeberli]

We don't want to break the rules, but given the control system changes it would be great to know for certain what control system parts are included in the standard KOP.

In particular, is the PCM included?

Also, what set of motor controllers are included?

We'd like to make sure we have backups for each new control system component we plan to use.

Thanks,

Martin

It's all listed in the first paragraph of this FRC Blog post:

PCM (and VRM, PDB, roboRIO and robot radio) and 4 Talon SR (old Talons) are all in the KOP.

The contents of the Kickoff Kits are typically confidential until Kickoff, but hopefully I can get away with saying that much!
