Yes, they've had long lead times and a few issues, but give them a break. We could be using Bosch drill transmissions... You know back around 2002, there was no BaneBots, there was no AndyMark, there were no CIM motors with a nice keyed shaft, and we were restricted to purchasing parts only from one very overpriced supplier. Teams still made great robots.
Yes, the BaneBots products have a few flaws. But, it's up to the designer to consider those shortfalls, and design around them. For the price, their products are great. I was quite happy to see the BaneBots motors (especially the 775) in the KOP this year, and I hope they are here to stay.

Another bright side: They don't sell airplanes :-/
BTW - the one's we used the ZAP fix on do not perform as well as the ones that tested OK. Anyone else notice a performance hit?
