So browsing around the vex store I see the two different types of vex keys and I know the black ones are old and white are new. But my question is what is the actual difference?
Actually there’s a LOT of difference.
In short buy the new one.
Details…
- New radio that is 2.4 GHz based instead of WiFi
- Separates “pit” and “competition” communication by automatically detecting the competition computer via the remote and uses separate sets of channels
- Is capable of probing to see what channels are in use and not use them
- Has many more “slots” for robots and/or other 2.4 GHz stuff
Basically makes running a robot at a competition much less quirky.
Thank you Cody for the information and the quick reply.
