Re: pic: Front left view of ai cannon

I understand that the tank is metal; we used to get a similarly sized black one in the KOP. Pneumatics weren't exactly common while we had that... Something about no onboard compressor and the tank weighed about 12-13 lbs on a 130 lb robot (and the cylinder rules didn't help).

I'm not sure that parallel batteries are the best thing, especially if you charge them in parallel. (There was a discussion on this earlier this summer, IIRC.) Being a mechanical, I defer to the electrical guys on that, though.

I wasn't referring to the tether cable when I mentioned spaghetti. Matter of fact, I couldn't tell there was a tether cable on there... this may be due to about 20-30 wires going all over the place.
