Electronic Bundles Builder

Choose your processor, motor controllers, motors, and system components to create a complete electronics system to suit your needs. The only thing you'll need after configuring this Builder is a battery. For Mecanum chassis that you want to drive with a Radio Link controller you will need to purchase a Mecanum Mixer (am-2715b) to spin the wheels in the correct directions for translational motion.

Understanding Part Numbers

Electronic bundles product numbers are built to identify components within the code. Below is the breakdown of how these part numbers are built.

• The first two positions identifies the product number:
  • BC - Bundle for Controls
• The third position identifies the controller and will come with components needed to hook it up (see link):
  • F - roboRIO READY (BYOr) - Bring Your Own roboRIO - this kit matches the roboRIO one exactly, it just doesn't have a roboRIO in it, so if you have your own, this is perfect for you.
  • L - RadioLink - a simplistic approach of a simple Radio Control with limited programming capability in the controller
  • N - No Processor - so you'll need to have your own controller.
  • R - roboRIO - the fully capable controller used within FIRST Robotics Challenge
• The fourth position identifies the motor controller and will come with the components needed to hook it up (see link):
  • X - SPARK Max - multiple possible inputs, able to control both brushed and brushless motors
• The fifth position identifies the quantity of motors and will come with wires needed to hook them up:
  • 2 - Two Motors
  • 4 - Four Motors
• The sixth position identifies the type of motor:
  • C - CIM - a brushed motor with power
  • R - RedLine - a brushed motor to designed for speed and power both
  • N - NEO 1.1 - a brushless motor built to be a drop in replacement for the CIM
  • 5 - NEO 550 - a brushless motor for anywhere a 550 sized motor fits
• The seventh position identifies the type of power distribution and will come with components needed to hook them up (see links):
  • B - ATC 8 Gang Fuse Block - lightweight single input terminal for simple power distribution
  • 3 - PP45 Power Board - simple and compact power distribution with PP45 secure connections
  • A - AMPD - This Board features 24 output channels with fully insulated toolless lever connector for safe, reliable power distribution
