Agree

[@cuongcjnguyen4405]

how to you make front wings stronger and weaker, is that thru coding pneumatics or other tricks?

[@skootle3871]

I'm a first year student in vex so I could be very wrong but im pretty sure they have 2 different solenoids going to the piston with a t-splitter, and one of the solenoids would be on a pneumatic regulator.

[@skrrtdotcom9120]

Pneumatic regulators and mechanically locking wings

[@johnvoracek3587]

we just used solenoids and a limiter

[@saltinecrackers5414]

@@johnvoracek3587 So correct me if I’m wrong but the way the piston limiter works is a T splitter that leads into two solenoids one is backwards and one is right and they both lead into a mother T splitter which leads into a piston. And whichever solenoid you activate activates the weak and strong mode

[@johnvoracek3587]

@@saltinecrackers5414 the air from the tank goes into a double acting solenoid. one output of the solenoid goes through a limiter and the other is not limited. both outputs have a backwards single acting solenoid. after the single acting solenoids, the two outputs are rejoined by a T splitter and sent to the wings.
