Go to Post everyone in FIRST has to do the cha cha slide at least once per season to get it out of their system. Now I can go back to doing it in the privacy of my own car (if you see a red Jeep in CT swerving back and forth don't worry, it's just me doing the slide...)! - KathieK [more]

Attaching a shaft to a Vex Motor

It seems the vex motor outputs are simply a square shaft receiver. I don't see any way to lock the shaft in the motor. We were interested in direct driving a wheel from a vex motor, and having a short 'arm' on another one (5 inches).

Am I correct when I say that we have to create our own shaft retaining method with a shaft collar and mounting plate?
