anyone bought a Vexpolerer yet?

too bad it didn't also come with cloaking ability...then you could simultaniously spy on Simbiotics and build your robot while watching it wirelessly on tv haha...just playing guys....we all know its envy in the end.

anyone know if you can use the claw and arm from that yet for FTC? ...i know... i know...most parts are compatible with the current Vex parts..but are they legal? (i checked www.vexlabs.com and they didnt mention anything)

that would solve the problem of picking up rings and placing them on the poles, and also the problem of grabbing the crossbar for the dualie goals.

Read rule <R5> and that will answer your question.

Hey, so we can use mechanical vexplorer parts. Awsome.

Also, did anyone notice how low the cover for the goals are to the ground. If you wish to lift the goals from underneath, it would be hard to slip a device under.

I'm not so sure, this is a Game Design Committee question to post in the forums.
