Re: Breaker Panel not in this years kit?

I am going to go out on a limb here and recommend that teams stick with the IFI block if they can. The advantages are excellent primary wiring connections, good wire management, minimum electrical loss, low weight, and the ability to get feedback if one or more of the breakers are tripping.
For many teams, the ability to use so many high current motors will stress the primary power, if you can over current the main battery with four Chalupas, think what six will do.
