Re: pic: Vex 2 Speed Mesh Shifter

True. Vex motors are not very forgiving to over-design/over-building, but some teams will try and learn the hard way. How many threads were on the vexrobotics forum about stripping motor gears and broken clutches?
That's why the engineering notebook will come in handy. We usually learn more from our failures, than from our successes!
