Documents
Having been an FRC team since 1997, MVRT's experience has helped us develop tips for what we believe are the keys to success in the FIRST Robotics Competition. We have put together a collection of resources, including our popular FIRST Aid Kit, for the use of both members and other teams.

Information
The MVRT Talon SRX Breakout requires both surface mount and through hole soldering. The exact components are linked in the open source files below, because the entire board is 100% open source. The board comes with the 12-pin header to attach to the Talon SRX. MVRT highly recommends that you place electrical tape on the bottom of the board to prevent shorts.
