Hopefully people doing the make it real online challenge, or even designers at vex could take inspiration from these. These could be alternate versions of new parts, or …

Id put this in New Product Ideas Anyways, I’d love to see the small work cell Motors made legal with a trade for the main motors. E.g you could trade 2 big motors for 3 small motors and then have 6 big, 3 small. Also locking standoffs would be nice

I’d imagine that these could be produced in a way that minimizes h&s risks, such as placing a plastic casing with a mount hole around the main body and plastic “tongues” on the tail of the spring so that roboteers avo…

Legal 24T and 48T gears for VRC would be nice instead of jumping from 12 to 36 to 60. And maybe a Vex V5 Speaker if they feel so inclined so I can totally not have Coconut Mall playing during the match.

c channel coupler stock that’s longer than 4 holes. The stuff is so useful, we could do a lot with them if we had longer peices.
