Do any of you have any tips or ticks you could share for making good smart cables. I did a tutorial video here.

Here is a GREAT resource on the VEX Knowledge Base.

Thanks for these resources, Mark! I actually just used the tutorial video from @David_Kelly to learn how to make Smart Cables last week. Excited to check out your video too.

So far my favorite tip is using a string to measure the length of the smart cable needed! Much easier than trying to stretch a smart cable out around the robot to reach the Brain.
