Re: 2007 Kit
I mourn the death of the van door motor. Requiem in pacem, good friend - you have served FIRST well.

Re: 2007 Kit
I tested out the vacuum kit this afternoon, and it really sucks!!!
That is to say, it seems to work well. It holds on to the inner tubes with no problem. |

Re: 2007 Kit
Yes. The vacuum generator does need to vent air all the time, though, so I'm not sure if it would be too big a drain if connected to a whole robot pneumatic system.

Re: 2007 Kit
Also note the new IFI radio sizes (Both OI and RC), seem to be light enough, but a bit bigger.

I'm hoping that they'll change it to allow equivalent batteries, though I doubt they will. |

Re: 2007 Kit
I haven't physically done anything with the new Transmissions yet, but I wonder how they compare to the old ones we used to receive. Also, I'm not really a big software buff, but the new electronics are kinda cool...

Re: 2007 Kit
Yes, I have been wondering if FIRST thought at all about the environmental impact of suddenly making thousands of existing perfectly good batteries obsolete overnight. I suppose they are good for practice and use in previous years robots for demos and such but I still think this was possibly the most environmentally UNfriendly move FIRST has ever made. What a waste. Folks if you don't want, need, or have a good use for your old (now obsolete) batteries from previous years PLEASE consider either finding a new useful home for them or at least properly recycle them.
