Re: [FTC]: Two different Tetrix servo bracket screws

The one with longer shaft is much easier to use, and allows the servo bracket bearing to be mounted on a variety of Tetrix parts. The shorter one is so short that it is difficult to mount the bearing in the servo bracket (you have to compress the washer some before the threads will even catch in the nut) and impossible to use the bearing with some other Tetrix parts.

Anyone else notice this?
Are you using a servo for your minibot? If so, do you count it against the two motor limit?
