[Tom Line]

All told, we smoked 10 tetrix motors *so far*. We used the dyno data to put together the correct shaft sizes. A couple of our motors smoked when the switch failed to work, a couple more when the modified trannies on our 2 second bot weren't perfect and locked up. Several broke tabs during minibot suicides, and the rest were destroyed by eager students learning about motor torque curves.

I'm proud that we have not copied a single thing. Design and build is 100% ours. I did not enjoy the cost, and the regular calls of "order more motors". In one case we smoked a motor because our grenade pin got knocked out and the bot ran through the entire 2 minute match. I will not cry when this minibot madness is over.
