Re: VEXpro 2016

The 775pro looks totally awesome. I am very happy that we no longer have to purchase from BaneBots.

I'm confused by the section in the motors guide that starts with "Note: Current Draw at Peak Power"

196 watts is not the power requirement for a motor to lift 20 kg 1.0 meters in the air. Power depends on the speed at which the box is lifted and motors should be selected based on the power required from them, not the amount of work being performed. The units are also a little questionable.
