Re: VEX Robotics Relaunches VEXpro Product Line with over 120 New & Improved Products

The bushings are a tight fit in order to guarantee a good clamp and good concentricity when the ring compresses. The easiest way to get them out is to use the motor they are designed for and put a slight side load when pulling out. This worked for me when doing testing.

Noted about the sharp corners. In some cases the manufacturer did not follow our print regarding breaking edges. We will improve this on future items.

Thanks,

Paul
