It is so helpful that there are so many different COTS vendors in the FRC space these days. Everyday here on Chief Delphi I feel like some new other company has started up and is selling another great solution. You can solve pretty much any problem that you might need with just a few clicks, but where should you be clicking? I tried to find a list that I could save and have a directory to go to when I need help, but I couldn’t. I am trying to create a list of vendors so that others that are old and losing their memories like me can have a resource to refer back to.
I’ve been using findrobotparts more and more recently. It must take a huge amount of work to keep the database updated, but it’s really useful. Thanks!
Glad you like it. We do go through months where we don’t touch it and then months where we are updating it all the time. Just like the FRC year it ebbs and flows in how much work we put into it.
Great list! I’m going to borrow it and the earlier one up thread.
Your list is pretty thorough. So I thought I’d add a spot for MicroCenter, since we buy filament, PLA+ mostly, there and Dallas has a store. Good stop of RPi & accessories, a lot of the hobbyist electronics, ethernet/usb cables, etc.
