We received 12 RS-775-V18 motors.

Test ran unloaded for 20 min
Checked for Case Short - none

Then we started using one on the shooter.. After some testing, case shorting was detected. That motor is begining to degrade and run at a higher temperature. We plan to use it till it drops. We want to develop a replacement and reliability plan for the motors in this application.

We implemented modifcations to improve cooling of the motor based on of the other threads. These included a spacer between motor and the CIMulator to permit air flow into the motor and cooling fins on the motor case.
