Pneumatics issues

Yep. Today I pumped up to 100psi and left it for 5 minutes; it had gone down to 40psi (with the pump connected the whole time). So while it didn’t seem like there was a leak, the pump’s gauge was moving too slowly to notice it.

We’ll have to look into this and tape, though we have a comp tomorrow. Does electrical tape work?

That seems akin to a ref allowing an robot that measure 18.5" in height compete. Does it happen? Yes. Should it happen? No.

Maybe, but it’s not a legal material for VRC robots. If you find a leak in a piece of tubing (a small amount of water with a bit of dish soap mixed in can be helpful for that) you should just replace that piece. Be sure to cut the tubing square, that’s another common source of leaks.

That’s a good idea to check it, thanks. Didn’t realise it wasn’t legal
