Out Of Money already! - <R71>
The rules make mention of an "additional hardware list"
Quote:
Based on the "flow chart" anything that is "designed to conduct electricity?" is subject to the $200 limit. This is not a not a lot of money to buy anything that conducts electricity that is not supplied in the kit. Think about it. Wire? good 10 gauge wire is about $1 a foot. 10 Turn Pots? cheap ones from $13 from digi-key -- the ones I LIKE to use are about $28 Shaft Encoders? I was planning on using Bourns 3950 series, $52 each What about Yaw Rate Sensors? None in the kit this year -- $30 each from Future Electronics -- $70 if they are mounted on a small PCB. Accelerometers? Another $10 for the chip -- $30 on a PCB. I don't know if this is just something that fell through the cracks or what but it doesn't seem like we have enough money to do anything interesting. I must have it wrong, but I don't see my error. Anyone have a thought on this? Joe J. |
