BaneBots p60 falure
at our regional we had a p60 fail in a way i have not ever seen before, and i was wondering if any other teams had advice on how to prevent this.

an 1-81 P60 with an rs550 on our roller got hit by another robot, and the 4 screws that hold the gearbox together pulled out all of the threads in the aluminum block on the motor side of the gearbox. it was repaired by putting 2 screws in either side, and using an FTC threaded standoff in the middle. this solution worked O.K.

has anyone else had this problem
