Re: Vex Sensors on FRC Bots?
Team 1675 has used VEX quadrature encoders for the past two years; last year for our mecanum drive-base and this year for traction control. We've had a bit of trouble programming them (encoders) due to lack of experience with the new control system (we're using C++ and can't figure out why we're not getting period from our encoders). Othwerwise, the protective housing is a nice feature. I recommend their use.
