Re: New Vex Mecanum
Quote:
This was the transition point from old to new, we had existing inventory of the 6" wheels with old rollers on them, and rather than open each one up and replace the rollers, we attached two replacement roller packs of the new style to the product (enough to completely update the wheel).
This just gives you some more run time overall and was more productive than us scrapping the old rollers entirely.

That's great and I would have done the same thing. I'll bet a lot of teams didn't know why they were getting extra rollers and put the wheels as-is on their robots. I hope they read this!
