Sunny,

You can absolutely just by the 10:1 gear kit. However, the 3:1 (and 4:1) gear boxes come with the 8mm CIM motor shaft. The 10:1 gear box comes with the 1/2" hex shaft. If you want the 10:1 and 1/2" hex, then you need to buy the 10:1 gear kit and the 1/2" hex shaft separately.

The gear kit is very easy to change by just removing the 2 #8 screws. The shaft is a little harder as you will need snap ring pliers to remove the shaft.

I printed out that post and still have it for reference as he explains it much better than I explain it.

Could you point to this post? I'm having trouble finding it.

Thanks!

I believe Adam was referring to Dr. Joe Johnson's post that Paul Copioli was referencing.

When will you get the information such as CoF data for the VersaWheels?

All VEXpro orders received before 3p Central today have shipped. Customers should have shipping information e-mailed to them.

All VEXpro products will be changing status from 'Ships before Kickoff' to 'In Stock' by tomorrow morning.

Additionally, we are happy to announce 50% off all shipping methods for orders placed now through February 19, 2013. No restrictions - all VEX Robotics customers can benefit from reduced shipping costs.

Happy Kickoff Eve!

Best,
Ricky

I got a shipping confirmation for the product voucher stuff, but not for the actual order I paid for. When do I panic, and at whom?

Give our system a bit to catchup on the large amount of orders shipped today.

If you still don't see anything by tomorrow morning send me a PM and we'll figure out what's going on.

Best,
Ricky

Thanks for the update, Ricky! I was starting to get worried. I guess I'll take my hand away from the panic button...for now...
