With that said, I really like this a lot. I'll point my electronics team to it to see if they want to consider something like it since they've yet to finalize the location for our manifold.
You should always release pressure before moving the robot, but we did take this into account. We have thought carefully about what pistons should be on single solenoids and which on double solenoids. Anything on a single solenoid will have its pre-match configuration as it unpowered default, so that the robot will shrink when disabled.

Thanks for the feedback!
