I personally prefer sanding down hex(knowing that later it will be an easy switch) over trying to make key fit. Even so, if you bey hex stock, bearings, gears, etc. all from one place they generally all fit together well.

I can see how a bushing would be easier to use for some teams. We are able to make spacers and shafts with retaining ring grooves so we don't run into those problems. I like your spacer stock idea though. I think that would be easier for vex and better for everybody else than quick disconnect bushings.

Hopefully we can see the return of the 2013 prices. It appears that quite a few of the items have recently increased in price.

Still great deals. Still can't wait to see the new lineup.

The speed controllers increased in price back in April, immediately following the 2013 FRC season. VEX has done reduced pricing during the FRC season the last two years.

Thanks for the clarification. Is VEX still producing Jaguars?

Cant wait to see what is new, our team used the chassis and the vexpro ball shifters, and we absolutly loved it, yea we had that problem with the drive shaft coming out, but once we applied loctite never had problems, im looking forward to using vexpro again, and presenting the new items to the team for this new season:]

No promises, but VEXpro prices will remain competitive with the other products in the FRC market.

Paul Copioli, competitive? Oh, yes, no doubt about that -- especially in the minds of anyone who he has stared at from behind the glass. ;)

In business, too. If other suppliers offer something that threatens to take business away from his company, he WILL respond competitively. No doubt about that one, either.

See: Victor 888 pricing change immediately in the wake of the release of the Talon last year.

As am I. I'm sure the "special announcements" will be quite interesting.

I'm glad that my Thursday morning finals are the two I need to study least for!

(Of course, I'm sure this and CD will prove to be the huge distractions/procrastination tools they were today)

Maybe we'll be surprised and AndyMark will unveil even more new things as well.
