VersaRunner

Texas Torque employs lots of VEXpro items but until recently had no formal program for training our new members in their use. Our team president suggested we design an activity that incorporates not only the VEXpro parts we employ the most but also requires the use of our machining capabilities.

We call the project the VersaRunner, though VersaWalker might be more appropriate given its lack of speed. It is made up of over twenty VEX parts, including the following: 2-stage VersaPlanetary Gearbox with a BAG motor, a section of 1" x 2" VersaFrame, two 3.25" VersaWheels DT, and two VersaBlocks.

The SolidWorks files for the project are available at this GrabCAD link.

You can also find the files, plus future updates, on our team website at http://www.texastorque.org/versarunner
