Easier shifting?

Is there a way to make the Chiaphua motor and the Dewalt XRP Transmission easier to shift?

Take out the detent spring that positions the black speed selector. Also, use high torque servos.

We're allowed only two types of servos per the rules, no? The Hitec servos are spec'd in the white paper. The other type that's allowed, from VEX, requires some work to mount and interface with the transmissions.

That is exactly what we are using, the hitec servos. Im on the same team as free2be641. I also have a topic about it in tech discussion.
