i'll have to check my un opened baneboxes and see if they say that...

Also, check the motor mounting flange. If it does not allow for airflow into the motor, you will need to mill the face to allow for airflow. If you do not have airflow on the BaneBots, they will overheat and they will case short.

I clearly missed that spelling issue. I blame build season and my late nights and 0430 wakeup ;)

The BaneBot transmission issue is still a valid point... Make sure that grearbox is greased great :p

I didn't know BaneBots made grearboxes...

We'll have to check those out. I wonder what they're used for...

They give all sorts of reproductions from motors ranging from 4:1 to 150:0.

If they reproduce motors during the match, do we get penalized for more than the alloted number of motors on our brobot?

Don't bother. Vexpro has Versa Planetary gearboxes (http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexpro/gearboxes/versaplanetary.html) which are practically the same in functionality, with the added bonus of accepting any motor under the sun, ease of assembly, and multiple output shafts/adjustable gear ratios.

My post wasn't directed at you, it was directed at the person I quoted. I think the typo is quite funny.

Funnily enough, I missed their "typo." Drat.

I think I'll start "accidentally" calling the company BraneBots.
