Re: Andymark.biz

yeah i guess i can kinda see it you guy's way also....

as for the AM shifter : 360 *2 (for 2 of them) + 110*2 (for the planetaries) = 940$
i round to 1000

i'm not saying it should be illegal just that well its too easy ... i can't really make up my mind.... i can understand why its okay and i agree with you all its just some tiny part of me says .... "its wrong"

for the changing motors thing.... it wasn't really solely aimed because of the AM shifter... i've just seen that people have so many designs that they've made after years etc... its gotten easy to build a shifter.... i think it would shake things up... add a challenge aspect to it...

"But for those who have different goals and objectives, I still think it is ok for others to buy premade."
shouldn't everyones goal to learn how to build robots/engineering etc... NOT just to easily build a robot that is reliable and therefore you can easily win competitions....yet not learn so much..?

also for those who don't really have that much money for transmissions.... hmm..... what if they make a rule that says only a certain amount of money can be spent on one individual product? i kno i kno .... i am a pessimist i'm like this in every aspect of life... lol....

btw if this does go for sale i think our team SHOULD buy it.... i want a reliable shifter for my team but in the BROAD overal FIRST picture i don't think its the best thing...
