why do we not use helical gears for vex robotics. should we ask vex robotics to start selling and making helical gears for teams to use?
I am pretty sure vex does sell bevel gears, which can be used similarly. because of the design they are pretty weak and therefor not commonly used. I am not 100% tho that’s just what I’ve heard from other teams. Helical gears would be super useful especially for over under early season for a slapper on a lift, for keeping gearing compact.
