Re: Versatile gearboxes for pre-season stocking up?
I also love the versatility of the VP, and we have used a few (in offseasons) to good effect, but I haven't been able to get the booster club to cut loose enough funding to have a useful variety. As a less expensive way to get versatility during prototyping, we do stock a variety of sprockets, and use chain reduction (in combination with a few stock gear ratios) to do our prototyping and pre-testing, then order specific gearboxes or gearmotors to fill our needs. The VP encoder stage makes this an even more versatile part of your development toolbox.
