Re: Take the "Bane" out of your Banebot P60s - Solution to Banebot P60 Weaknesses

Well we just got back from our competition in Boston and this mod DOES INDEED FIX THE P-60 ISSUES! We ran the whole competition without a single failure with these modifications. In fact, while testing our autonomous program we hyperextended our arm and one these little guys stalled with a fisher price motor on it and then proceeded to rip our counter-balancing gas shock right off its mountings without any damage to the gearbox. If you are having P-60 woes, here's your way out.

PS: We elected to run the steel ring geas.

Best of luck!
