Keep them cool by not running them. It may sound a bit snarky, but in this case it sounds like you're basically spending a lot of time with the motors stalled (i.e. putting power into the motor, but...

Bimba cylinders are tricky because when you order you need to look carefully to see if the items are "in stock" or not. They will happily sell (or give via PDV) any size you request, but if the size...

Re: Mecanum wheels not strafing correctly
Assuming the wheels really are all spinning correctly, it sounds to me like a weight and/or gearing issue. Is this a fully functional robot, or just a drive chassis? Can you take 50 lbs off, and...

Re: What's in a name? New Championship Divisions
I think it's unlikely to happen, as there is a financial cost to having a new name (all the banners, etc). However, this did spawn an idea that would be less costly than renaming all the fields each...

What's in a name? New Championship Divisions
At the 2014 Championship, they announced that the 2015 Championship would be bigger -- taking up three venues instead of just one. A very reasonable conclusion from that is that there will be more...

Re: Swapping digital input/output
I just thought of this:
Maybe the Ultrasonic class, two I/O pins and a diode would solve the problem: Charge the cap through a diode from an output pin. This corresponds to the "ping" in the...

In San Diego, the most frequent penalty was G46 (a ball more than 3" into the frame, most frequently getting trapped under the robot). This occurred approximately 65 times in 57 matches (though I...

Re: Changes over the years?
1992 was tethered; I'm not sure about 1993. 1994 was wireless. I think the control system was from Motorola then, so I'd guess it was probably the same system from 1993 or 1994 until 1998. In 1994...
