Re: pic: 610: Electronics Board

Hey Team 610 great looking electronics, congrat's..

One suggestion..
though difficult to see perspective in photo..

Appears AL angle on batt terminal side,
if conductive invites a direct battery short
if the tape on terminals wears thru from vibration
or unravels during competition -- big time smoke and dead bot.

Suggest non conductive member to replace conductive
in this critical position.. epoxy board, etc

BTW Kudo's on floating Anderson connectors w/pigtails for effective vibration isolation
(hard mtg to chassis conducts mechanical impact trauma release scenario)

.. RI looking to hasten inspection process, (& more free time!)
