Go to Post My team heard another team describe the Championships as "10,000 kids jamming the Georgia Dome for 3 days…more nerds per square foot than a Star Trek convention…and more purposefully employed " Is this true?, Because I don't think there could possibly be a more wonderful place on earth - Emily3204 [more]

Using a CIM to power a vacuum system?

We've been prototyping a handless "hand" system for our bot. Can we use a CIM motor to power a shop vac vacuum plenum system and still stay within the rules? I know several teams last year used a shop vac to get soccer balls to the goal using vacuum. We're taken with the simplicity of using a handless system in the same way since the tubes do not weigh very much. Any pearls o' wisdom would be appreciated.

Thanks!
