Re: Why Hasn't first gone Brushless?
Well if they just legalized them as in let teams use them without putting them in kits... you would have teams with ridiculous advantages over any team who can't afford the price tag on even a small brushless motor. An Axi-2208 which is a comparable replacement for a motor a tough smaller than like the Banebots.. is about $75. Not to mention the price of the speed controllers.
And FIRST can't afford to put them in the kits. I'm sure they can pick up CIMs surplus for under $10.. nowhere can you pick up brushless cheap for surplus so that's why they can't just include it in the kit. They cost a lot in general. |
