Update #9

[David Brinza]

I'm not finding drawing GE-0940 Rev B. The update says it's in Section 8, but I don't see it there. Nor is it with the Game specific drawings in Section 6.

Am I misguided, or what?

I can't find it either. The Game specific drawings have GE-0940 Rev A, but there is only the original trailer hitch diagram in it. I guess they must not have posted it yet or have hidden it with great skill.

Mods, should this thread be merged with the other update 9 thread? http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...686#post813686

Good, other people are having trouble finding the new drawings for the trailer hitch. I thought I was just web site incompetent.

Has anyone asked Q&A about it?

The presence of a disabled state between autonomous mode and teleop can have an effect on teams using single-acting pneumatic solenoid valves...

The new drawing has been posted at the end of Section 8 on the 2009 FIRST Competition Manual and Related Documents page.

Looks like a shorter (3") length of Andy-Mark chassis material (C-channel) is allowed for the trailer mount bar. Presumably this avoid interference of the mount with the hitch tongue given the larger (3/8") clearance hole in the hitch swivel.
