Re: Tetra connectors metal or plastic?

Just in case anyone is interested in a cheap easy tetra, just take some PVC pipe cut to 3' lengths, then drill a hole in the ends and use some 12-18 gage stranded wire and tie the ends together. I just built 2 like that tonight and beat em up pretty good. They react pretty much the same as the spec ones.

Re: Tetra connectors metal or plastic?

I was on the Innovation FIRST site and they now have the parts available for ordering (and they don't mind charging you for them). According to IFI:

Quote from IFI: Field Parts: These are the exact parts you will compete with at the FIRST competitions.

Maybe this is the answer?
