Re: New Control System

The cast steel is actually a lightweight cast of a magnesium alloy. If you've removed the back plate, perhaps you noticed how little the flat piece weighs. But put the pieces together and it does more and weighs more than the previous system.

There have been other discussions about the overall weight of the new components, but in the end, it will be the same for all teams. I'm sure you will not be allowed to punch holes in the cRIO, so you can spend your strategic planning time on something else.
