How to order RoboRIO

[plengel]

I am a new leader for a veteran team trying to figure out what to order. I want to order a new RoboRIO and power distribution panel for our team but can't find it on the AndyMark web that our FIRST site takes me to:

http://firstchoicebyandymark.com/everything

However, I was talking with someone from another team with more experience and they said that I could find a RoboRIO at the following URL:

http://www.andymark.com/Controls-Packages-s/381.htm

So I see it is possible to find a RoboRIO but I can't find it with the path provided by FIRST. Can someone please help me understand how to get the RoboRIO?

Thank you,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

The www.andymark.com site is AndyMark's retail site from where teams can purchase items as needed.
The www.firstchoicebyandymark.com site is run by AndyMark and hosts items available in the FIRST Choice program. roboRIOs are not available in FIRST Choice, but you should be able to see the Power Distribution Panel on the FIRST Choice site. I hope that helps.

So I see that the RoboRIO units are out of stock on AndyMark. Do you happen to know when or if any new units will becoming available? I want to use one to make a development system this year for my kids to work on while our competition unit is being made.

Thank you,
Patrick
