Go to Post When's the last time you called up FIRST headquarters just to say thanks? Or saw a volunteer at a regional and said, 'Hey, you're doing a really great job here. Thank you for everything you're doing in your spare time.' - Amanda Morrison [more]

Re: VEXPro - After the season

And for reference, they just barely fit on the Andymark Nanotube output shafts for direct drive (I don't think we had to get the longer shafts, but that was a while ago).
I was thinking about purchasing a set of 8" Mecanums for my team. I was just wondering why there is such a significant disparity in price between the ones VEXpro sell and the ones AndyMark sell. Does anyone know if there is a comparable quality difference as well?
