Hello, my team wants to add a LED light strip to our robot for the upcoming season but are having trouble. We are trying to use 3 mc29s to control the lights but don’t know how to program them into the robot. If someone could help us out it would be much appreciated. We are not even sure if they are still compatible, but there is not much information about adding LED lights out there. At least not from what we can find.
MC29 is not competition legal this year and I’m sure that will be the situation next year. Look into using an addressable LED strip.

Thanks for letting me know, in that case do you have any recommendations for what we should use?
This is a really good thread on how to set up legal LED lights.
This advice worked for our team, I would simply suggest under glow. This year we switched from underglow to vertical strips. This overexposed the camera at our nationals and we had to turn them off. Lesson learned, we will return to under glow for worlds and next season.
Hope this helps
