Re: Window Motors Becoming Hot/Warm
Oh, great, thank God there are people that agree with me. Another programmer and I have been going at it with each other since day one. I told him "lets use Victors, they are reliable, more robust and teams rarely have problems with them." Keep in mind he is a rookie. His argument is that it is new technology and that using CAN would make us go to championships... Now I explain to him that no one cares how the motors are controlled or programmed, the only thing that would get us to championships is the performance on the field.

I see no real advantage of using CANs... I just need to manually get a closed loop working.
