If you have any concerns, please contact me at prosupport@vex.com and I'll talk you through what we did to make them better, and how they'll work awesome for your design.

In testing the new type, have you tested this on multiple sets of robots at a full 120lbs not including battery or just bases that dont have all the weight on them. Also on the specs is the 200lbs for the set of 4 or for each wheel(trying to compare to the standard and HD on the andymark site that rate each wheel individually)? Has any team or third party heavily tested these out or played around with them yet?

Would you say that there is a big difference in the regular vs HD mecanum from andymark? What are your and anyone else's teams experiences with these?
Thanks for the help and sorry for any typing errors
