40 Amp Breakers?

Has anyone actually received their 40 Amp self-resetting breakers? I’ve checked around, and no one I’ve talked to had them in their kit. Perhaps if a couple teams have received them, it’d give a good indication that the item wasn’t scrapped from the KOP at the last minute (besides the fact that we got the breaker box for them).

If no one else got them, I guess we’ll have to wait until an official release on Tuesday.

We’re missing them too. And sensors. And R-tape. And tubing. Ugh…

The 40amp breakers have not shipped yet (to ANY teams). They are a first-run, custom order item, and the vendor did not complete them in time. They are scheduled to be delivered on Monday, and shipped to teams immediately afterwards. Cross your fingers, and don’t blame FIRST for this one.

Y = AX^2 + B… errr, whatever.

Ah. Thank you very much for the information. I can now rest easy.

:slight_smile:

yeah, i was going through the parts to make sure we had everything. i pulled out the maxi breaker panel, and stood there for a minute not knowing what it was. then, i realized it was the maxi breaker, cause only 4 slots were wired. then i spent about 5 minutes frantically searching for the 40 amp breakers, and when i didn’t find them, i assumed they were with our optical sensors :p. at least now we know where they are.

Does anybody have any details about when we will be receiving these parts¿

Any idea on the pneumatics bag, the missing sensors, etc? If so, could you post the info in that thread.

On this subject is anyone else missing their operator interface, joysticks, and sensors? we dont have any of those!

uh, you already have the OI and joysticks…

i really do hope you read all the instructions with the edurobot, cause that’s where your OI and joystick are. the sensors, well, i don’t have those yet either.

thanks for the info.

I haven’t had a look at the edubot kit yet cuz we didn’t get ours till really late but i’ll look into it.

anyone know yet why people are missing sensors.

The sensors come with the software FIRST should have mailed you.
