Re: VEX Robotics Relaunches VEXpro Product Line with over 120 New & Improved Products

I've noticed that the Single Speed Single Reduction Gearboxes no longer have weight listed under their specs. Was the previously listed weight of 1.26 lbs incorrect?

Re: VEX Robotics Relaunches VEXpro Product Line with over 120 New & Improved Products

Is it possible to mount 2 sprockets (one on each side) to a versawheel AND a hex hub? Would that require two hex versahubs and two sprocket mount hubs? What length screws would be used? The purpose is to direct-drive a center wheel with a hex shaft and transfer torque to two other wheels with chains.

Yes, this would be possible.

Yes, this weight was erroneous. We will be posting more details on this early next week.

Re: VEX Robotics Relaunches VEXpro Product Line with over 120 New & Improved Products

This may have already been answered, but there are lots of posts to sort through...

Can teams who ordered VEXpro parts expect "delivery before kickoff"?

I'm getting anxious to check out the Ball Shifters...

How do you expect shipping to be during the build season?

In general, teams should NOT expect delivery before kickoff, though most items will begin shipping the first week in January.

Re: VEX Robotics Relaunches VEXpro Product Line with over 120 New & Improved Products

Does the PDV get us the items for free or for the $49/$59 price points? When I add them to my cart what should the price be?

You get 2 total Victors and/or Jaguars for free along with (1) 2-Wire Motor 393, (1) Motor Controller 29 and (1) F-F 3-Wire Cable. If that is all you add to your cart the only charge should be a shipping charge.

You can add other items to the same order, but are responsible for their costs.

Details are at the top of this page: http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexpro/pdv-group.html

Best,
Ricky

OK, maybe I missed something, but where are the Traction Tires listed? I no longer see them on the VexPro site.

Whaaa happened?

The old style traction wheels appear to have been discontinued and replaced with these.
