 we would all build robots to play "rock-paper-scissors" if FIRST told us to, cause it is just so freakin' much fun to build a robot until 2:30am every night for six weeks! - dlavery [more] |

Re: Guage of PWM/Relay Cables
I'm not sure, but I'm guessing about 26 AWM. However, the yellow ones supplied in the kit are probably like 30 AWM.

Re: Guage of PWM/Relay Cables
Check out section 8.3.9 at http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedFiles...Robot_RevE.pdf
Particularly check rule 90. The servo wires are 24 AWG. The exception to these rules in the past has been the "Y-connector" cables that allow you to connect two Victors (or Spikes) to one PWM output on the RC. They were 28 AWG as I recall. I don't know as I've seen that exception written in to this year's rules or Q&A forum, so unless I've missed something, I suspect they are not allowed this year. 24 Gauge, three conductor wire can be a bit of a pain to find. I get ours from www.greathobbies.com but you may be able to find a dealer closer to home. Jason |
