 An FRC team's success should not be measured in how many robots it can build or how many blue banners it can collect. It should be measured by how many engineers (and other professionals) it 'builds'. - jvriezen [more] |

Question about buying electronics
I'm in charge of ordering parts for my team, and yesterday one of the engineers came to me asking me to go and buy another Victor speed controller...
The problem I found was that you cannot spend over $300 on electronics, and over $100 for anyone device The victors sell for $115 you get 4 in the KOP, but the electronics diagram FIRST profides shows 9 victors... so are you only allowed to use the ones in the KOP???

Re: Question about buying electronics
You can have as many Victors as you want. I swear some of the robots I saw last year had 10 of them...

Re: Question about buying electronics
no, you can buy as many Victors and relay Spikes as you want - they dont count towards the $300 electronics limit, they only count towards the $3500 total robot limit
BTW you get them from InnovationFIRST.com

Re: Questions about buying electronics
Is there restrictions on buying more solenoids for your robot?
