Hello fellow vexers,

I want to start using cad modeling for our design, I heard that people use inventor or solid works, I think I’m going to use inventor, so can someone send me the files for the parts or their take on this discussion? Thank you.

This is the library that I currently use. It doesn’t include V5, but it helpfully includes iMates.

Here’s a white paper about CAD for VEX Robotics.

Is that for solid works?

No, it’s for inventor.

wouldn’t it make more sense to use mimic cad?
