 While at kickoff I asked Woodie if there were any concerns about missed shots at the center goal hitting the operators or the controls. He handed me a ball and told me to throw it at him as hard as I could... How many times does an opportunity like that come up? - Barry Bonzack [more] |

I don't blame IFI for making the decision to use a standard R/C system to control the EduBot. Up until now, IFI's control systems have been practically limited to the "robotic combat" genre of hobbyism. Now that they've decided to use a standard communication system, they've opened up their target audience for their control systems. R/C enthusiasts now have a good reason to be interested in IFI, if only for the EduBot controller.
Business-wise, I think IFI made a great decision in moving the EduBot to this R/C system. And in the end, the better IFI does as a company, the higher becomes the quality of the products we all get access to, through FIRST.  Kudos, IFI, and keep up the great work. |
