Re: VEX PRO. To use it or not to use it.

FRC competitions are technical design challenges. With respect to COTS, the process boils down choosing the right product to meet specific design requirements. IFI has simply given the community another source, yet it's an untested source. It's really a tradeoff of cost vs risk of unknown quality, tbh. Some items are less risky (to my team, at least), so those are definitely under consideration. Others, maybe next year.
