Im a new student to Vex and I've been really confused on some of methods to making a robot and exactly how to make one. Your videos help me learn so much in the short weeks I've had so far. Thank you!
Definitely we do it and it’s significantly better because the bearings don’t always line up perfectly with each other and you don’t want your screws or bars rubbing that much in the metal
I would not do it for our team. One of the things I do is to put dummy shafts that I have checked for straightness inside the bearings as I am assembling the structure that the bearings are mounted inside. As the structure is pulled together with the fasteners the bearing bores are kept in alignment. Using 1/4" shafts helps with this as they are much more resistant to bending.

justice for retainers, there so underated for high stress applications
Excellent and informative.
would you recomend drilling out bearings to make them barely any wider to reduce friction or no
@@haydenford3794 hats definitely something I’ve seen teams do, but personally I haven’t tested it myself.

Honey, wake up, 9MotorGang dropped (sorry I'm late)
guys i think we should start using bearings they look pretty cool ngl
@@62629W You got to set a new high score for wattage though.
I love bearings (for the algo)
Mom...9 motor gang has another video. Can you make me some pizza rolls and bring me some choccy milk. I am learning VEX stuff
and it’s all over my screen
Thank god I’m not the only one
I can never have an original experience 😢
COMMENT FOR THE ALGO RAHHHHHH
For the algorithm
Most people run cantilever on there front intake with a 5.5 w motor and the 2nd stage 11w
the axle that the intake actually hinges around isn't powered though, so friction is irrelevant
:D
can i eat the bearings
of course
I mean, you *can,* but I personally like the taste of keps nuts better.
