wouldn't it just be better to like use the vex......like all the time

thats what i would say

The arm wasn't connected the VEX on ours it had a separate controller that was small(we named it the weenie remote ) so it didn't spaz, but to answer robotman's Q, it would resist our controller input sometimes and go backwards. It also had jolts of movement, it even burst forward a couple times

That's an issue I had with my VEX robot for Robot Ramble as well. It's cus of all the metal, If your antenna is high above everything else then it should be better. It was interesting to see what happens when you touch the antenna on the remote to the metal on the bot while both were ON.

For us it was the vex that spazzed out

For us it was the vex that spazzed out

That happened to our past vex as well. And it is because controllers from the vex kit can control any other vex receiver, so it most likely is just someone else with another vex nearby.

What happens when you replace he crystals?
All it does is change the frequency at which it is used right?
