Go to Post I volunteered to be the person responsible for the electronics and raised my hand before realizing that I have had almost no electronics experience. I hope our robot turns out alright... - Blue_Mist [more]

Re: Cool new ideas for FIRST Robots - who has them?

i want to see what people did with electronics. we realized the control board and the power board were the exact same size and mounted them back to back. we also mounted neon tubes to the bottom of the bot and used a nylon mesh tubing that is used in PCs to bind our electrical..... oh yeah and used magnetic limit switches to determine the exact angle of our arm (im thinking of trying a potentiometer for next year but i think the magnets are more reliable).
