The Robolympics are coming up. Interesting list of events, and last year's was quite a blast... Just so you know!
This new site corrects a slew of issues with the current website while adding or improving a number of features we think should please everyone. Because of the downtime needed to transfer & verify data from the old site to the new,
Our Website Will Be Unavailable From 2:00pm MST Until 8:00pm MST, This Saturday February 25th.
After that, the site will be ready to take orders through our new streamlined order process.
Given how long we've been kicking around on the web, there's a ton of content that's being migrated at the same time, so if you happen to come across something gone awry (that we didn't already catch), we'd be awful appreciative if you could use the handy form that we'll be providing (links will be posted with the new site) for reporting missing/broken content, bugs, and of course general feedback.
Also, because of the way the passwords are encrypted on the current site, all passwords will be reset for the new site. In order to avoid spamming people, this will be purely opt-in, meaning you'll only be prompted to claim your account & set a password the first time you try to log in.

There's also a ton of new features and content I can't talk about just yet, but rest assured that there are some very cool things on the horizon.
On a final note, as part of our commitment to Open Source and the sharing of knowledge, I'll be posting about some of the issues I ran into and the solution to those issues, particularly those that were previously poorly/undocumented APIs (ie Paypal).

We asked Grant, our resident BEAM technician, to come up with a list of some of the tools he uses, and here we have it! This list will help those first starting out to see what they should use, and for those who've been doing it awhile we have some of our more advanced tools. […]
Effective immediately, all the proceeds from the sale of Zendulum kits will be going to the Red Cross efforts in Japan. We'll change up the Zendulum laser artwork to note it as such shortly, and post the new pic. (Done!) Fractured Hinomaru inspired by James White's "Help Japan" poster.
We've got in an inventory of Grand Wing Servo S03N standard servos. These pack quite a bit of power, and prove to be pretty good for standard servo applications. We're sorry to say that the RM1 is no-more. The RM1 is dead; long live the RM1. (I never understood that phrase...) All hail the RM1a! […]
