» News New venue and date for 2011 VEX World Championship! Dear VEX Robotics Competition Community, We are excited to announce a change in the date and location of the 2011 VEX Robotics Competition World Championship to April 14-16, 2011 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World outside of Orlando, Florida. Moving the competition from Dallas was not a quick or easy decision, as the 2009 and 2010 VRC World Championships in Dallas were extremely successful events. Recognizing that, we want to share the primary reasons we have decided to make this change. 1. It’s Disney World. Everyone at the Robotics Education and Competition (REC) Foundation takes our responsibility of planning, managing and growing the VEX Robotics Competition very seriously. We know how much time, effort and passion students, teachers, mentors and volunteers put into the program and want to do everything in our power to make the World Championship at the end of the season a memorable...

We realize that discontinuing the VEXnet Upgrade puts a financial burden on VEX Robotics Competition teams that are planning to attend certain events that run on VEXnet only. The programs below are aimed at helping teams that want to upgrade their technology while minimizing their costs. These programs are not mandatory for participating in the VEX Robotics Competition. Most events in 2010-2011 will still allow teams to run on 75 MHz Crystals or VEXnet. Check with your event organizer to be sure what system is being used where you are competing. Please note that the 2011 VEX Robotics Competition World Championship will be a VEXnet only event. VEXnet Upgrade Return Incentive Send in both the VEXnet TX Upgrade Module and the VEXnet Microcontroller Upgrade Module (keep your VEXnet...
