If you're expecting teams to order now so that you're able to provide these units "early" in the build season, you are not in compliance with the 2006 rules regarding what constitutes a vendor. The rules require that you ship your product no more than five days after receiving an order. Unless the rule changes drastically or you take measure to stock belts, teams cannot use a drive purchased from your team on a competition robot.

Can you explain more about the mechanism your team has in place to comply with FIRST's rules defining what a vendor is?
