I will try to find the post, and provide a link to it.

I have that... I want the source.

The more I think on this, it makes no good engineering sense. As I said, the cylinder will get to faster speeds than 20 IPS in almost all cases for almost all robots.

If this low number is, in fact, a limit of operation, it should be in the specs. It is not.

I do not want to and will not act on hearsay. A verbal number given by someone to someone to someone can not be a reason for me to rule a team's design unsafe at a competition.
