Re: Can a compressor run during the match?

A couple things you might want to keep in mind:

1. You also have the option of just putting a large number of tanks on your robot and working with a fixed supply of air. Depending on the amount of air you're using, this may / may not be a better solution.
2. Running the compressor during the match has non-negligible current draw. Depending on how many other motors you're running at once, this could be a concern.
3. There's also some vibration from the compressor. Keep this in mind if you have sensors near the compressor.

I don't think most teams have issues with these items, but they're good to keep in mind if you're experiencing weird errors.
