Original Stingray robot kit documentation

Does anyone happen to have the PDF of the original documentation for the full Stingray robot kit? It is no longer on the Parallax website and the only one I can find is the newer revised version that is for just the plain chassis kit.
I really wish that Parallax would have a section for people to download all the datasheets for retired products either on their website or a section set aside here on the forum....

I used to get all my old docs from the wayback machine. but Parallax has since change the robot.txt to exclude them from the archive.
Shame on you Parallax.
Today, I was looking for a few Programs for the Propeller Control Board, (Quadrover), bu could not find them. Time to plug in the 2 TB drive to see if they are on there.
Let me know when you have it so I can delete it again...
Ron. I'm a little perplexed on why you would delete the file. Wouldn't it be beneficial to others searching the forum for an answer to this question.?
It's not like it's a proprietary Parallax file.

EDIT: I just saw that you were hosting the PDF on your site. I understand saving space on your site.

Yeah, I had uploaded to my ISP's servers and I have limited available space so that's why I deleted it.
I guess I could have just attached it to the thread (as a ZIP file if necessary).
Glad you found what you were looking for.
It really would be nice if Parallax would archive old documentation for a number of years.
I think if we ask nice, Parallax would come up with the info we ask for. They'r nice guys and we are too.

The robot just sat and spun at first but I found that the left PING was bad (first one I've had an issue with) and swapping that with a spare fixed it.
