Why has nobody mentioned corn dogs in this thread? :rolleyes:

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

They could call Versony!! :yikes:

But im super excited to see what VEX has lined up for this season!

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

Oooooh on the gear note add some 7075 internal gears to the list. Like 60t, 72t, 84t. With addendum mods to mesh with normal 14.5* 20p gears. That would be like gearbox heaven I swear.

Tell me that I can actually buy new talons and victors and I'll be pretty happy. Also game to see some advances in the WCP lineup. We are purposely waiting on some major purchases just to see what Vex does.

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

Yep, we are putting in our order tomorrow instead of today in case we want to switch anything around. Now only if Vex's site could keep everything in my cart for longer than a day :/

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

That might be a chaching issue with your browser, not the VEX site.

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

I know! Every year, I always ask Aren for more sizes.

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

I actually just finished cading a 254 style gearbox and was going to discuss making it with the team but just found out about the launch tomorrow. So glad I come on Chief Delphi!

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

Aren will unveil mecanums with 75 degree tilt rollers - built for maximum pushing, and anodized black for superior performance

Ano really does make everything go faster

The Night Before VEXmas

'Twas the night before VEXmas, and all through the world,
not a metal stock was polished, nor burnished, nor knurled.
The credit cards lay on the tables with care,
in hopes that low prices soon would be there.

The students put away their computers and CAD
And dreamt of VEXPro and the fun to be had
And all the team's tools and the number 10 tap
Had all gone to their drawers for a pre-season nap.

When inside Chief Delphi arose such a clatter
I sprang to the web to see what was the matter
From Chrome to the webpage I flew like a flash
And went to the forums, my refresh button mashed

A post, at the top of the general forum
Took only one look and had sent my heart soaring
When what to my engineer's eyes should appear
But the words in the title, "VEXPro finally here!"

With a jerk of my arm I had made my mouse click
Excited to find out what products I'd pick
More rapid than Tumbleweed the page did load
As the names of each product appeared in the code:

"VEX Gearbox!", "VEX Chassis!", "VEX Motor and Piston!"
"VersaFrame!", "VersaBlock!", "New 2-speed transmission!"
"To the top of the pick list!", "Designed by Paul!"
"Does more for less! More for less? More for you all!"

As we wait for game hints, speculation is high
And there’s a sixty inch box in the kit, oh why?
And while down in Greenville, they might not have a clue,
There’s pallets of parts, and cardboard JVNs too.

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The sound of blue banners, and of many a poof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
In a flash full of swag, EJ came with a bound.

He was covered in corn dogs, from head to the knees,
And as if not enough, he requested more please.
A suite of products he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.

His eyes- how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
And each gearbox package was drawn up with a bow,
As he shuffled ‘round the room - for style, you know?

He dished out the new Victors, each stocking a sheath,
But only after placing a Talon beneath.
He lay down new wheels, and a box full of gears
The sound of the metal was music to my ears!

He brought new electronics, placed them on the shelf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself!
A wink of his eye and as he passed by my mill,
He put down a swerve, made by the Aren Hill.

He spoke not a word, but went back to his work,
And placed some last boxes, then turned with a jerk.
And waving around that famous blue flag,
Disappeared from sight in a flurry of swag!

He sprang to his sleigh, and to his team gave a call,
Then away they rolled out, and I soon missed them all.
But I heard him exclaim, through the night that was freezin’,
"Happy VEXmas to all, and have a great season!"

You can't get just one pony, it'll be lonely... you need TWO ponies!

Let's start with linear motion components, lifting solutions and heavier gauge 1x1 versa tubing.

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

Will VEX be selling hamsters compliant with the 2015 motor rules? More importantly are they organic free range hamsters raised in a cruelty free environment? Can we choose the gender of our vex pro versa hamsters?

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch
 

If they are selling ponies then the game will definitely be water polo.
