Bar locks - $3.45
lock nuts - $2
A handful of extra screws - $2
Longer 12" shafting - $5

Real total: $97.45

Like I said, these numbers are rounded but my total was $99.16

* Note that the motor pack comes with two motors...

I am up in NY. haven't sent the order in yet, when I was going to they went out of stock on the wrist. So I am waiting for tomorrow so it'll ship the same day.

Man I've been building that thing all day, mostly because I messed up three times. Took me 2.5 hours xD

It's a lot of fun to play with it. Anyone got it up and running yet?

Pictures anyone? I think our mentor has some of the thing our guys are building.

Did you get your Vexplorer?

If so then mine has to be showing up soon.......

And yes, I got the luxury of taring one apart to build our bots manipulator for FTC this year, fun.

Yeah I did get mine. Saw it sitting in the hallway when I came home from school :3

UPS guy handed me a big brown box labeled Vexplorer.

I've got it built into the original config and have been playing around with it for a bit. Tomorrow I get the rest of my parts from VexLabs so I'll be set to tare it apart and get to work.

This is real, we all just got handed $300 worth of parts, everyone's already won.
