Go to Post Robots aside, how we handle these situations, communicate with one another, resolve differences and potential conflict, and overcome obstacles defines us all as people. Remember the big picture and have fun. - Rich Kressly [more]

[FTC]: FTC Competition kits are here...

Woo Hoo....

Unpacked my FTC Competition kit today.

Lots of bits and pieces.......

Best news... the Split Axle clamps are GONE, replaced by a new piece that's called an Axle Hub. It looks like the Motor Hub (shaft adapter), but with a smaller hole to fit an axle (has a larger setscrew).

Also in this kit is a new plastic piece that protects the tabs on the motor from breakage.

The Omni wheel is neat, but yet to see how well it will work on the spongy mat. Only 2 come in the kit, so if you want twin wheels for smoother running, get out the Credit Card

Other than this, there seem to be larger quantities of some of the key parts.... eg: gears, angle brackets, screws etc.

And the new sensor is....... oops running out of ink..... can't spoil the surprize.....

Phil.
