Go to Post In 2001 instead of staring at the field at the game I turned around and watched the people watch the field. All I could see was a mass of people from all corners of the world, eyes lit up, gears turning in their heads. That, to me, is FIRST in action. - Jessica Boucher [more]

VEXpro...New for 2017?

Has anybody heard if VEXpro has any new products for 2017? We are restocking our shop and don't want to purchase anything that may be improved for 2017 ... like ballshifters, wheels, hubs etc.

Re: VEXpro...New for 2017?

You could sit on it for a few weeks. Vexpro did their release on December 10th last year, so it should be done with time to spare before competitions.

All we really need is a 3D scan and a 3D printer.

Not to derail the thread too much but if the scan was taken in a place where he'd conceivably expect no privacy (say a public street) and you were not selling them and were instead giving them away (i.e. not commercial use) and it didn't paint him in a false light or give away private information you might be clear even without consent.

Blah blah blah, not legal advice blah blah blah, check laws and regulations in your area.

You know what's funny about that video are the pool noodles taped the corners of the wall boxes in the background.

We had a student sit under one about a year ago and then stand up into it resulting in a couple of stitches so I completely understand the desire to put pool noodles at the corners.

Re: VEXpro...New for 2017?

I think a bevel gear extension for the planetary gearboxes to allow for 90 degree angles.

If they don't end up making this I call dibs on the patent

I'm hoping for the 775pro with an extended backshaft so they can be used with these encoders.

33 actually has a fairly clean solution for that here;

It requires a 1/4" hex broach, but that broach pays for itself if you use this 90* interface a few times.
