Re: SRX Mag Encoder Mounting and Cables

Independently of mounting encoders, note that the Versaplanetary is not normally used in FRC for drive trains, but for manipulators and steering. I have not done the math to prove that it is inadequate, but given that Vex markets separate lines of gearboxes for drive trains, I recommend that you do the math and/or an off-season experiment before using VPs for an FRC drive train.
