If you use qty 2 3:1 stages on the VersaPlanetary (like the P-80 9:1), then the torque rating jumps to 116 Ft-lbs so I don't know where you can claim the P-80 is "much beefier".

Wow, I didn't realize this, I didn't see the torque spec stated on the product page for the VP, I was just basing that on size. Sorry.
I mainly recommended them because they are specifically designed for CIM use, are there any plans to officially support the VP on CIMs in the future, it sure seems like people would want that.

We broke one on our 2011 arm and it nearly cost us a regional win (but we are pretty sure that was user error) I guess I should start recommending the VPs
