Ding ding ding ding!

I've used a lot of BAG/775pro/etc motors in the past, and they're very good. But as a team 20 minutes from AndyMark HQ and sponsored by them, being able to get parts that afternoon and without shipping costs does give the products on the AndyMark shelf a lot of weight. Where it makes sense to go elsewhere, we go elsewhere.
