Re: 4 Known Bad Victor 888s

We have 6 more we got with our shipment and are going to test them tonight to see if they are good.

We plan on returning them and/or getting new ones, but have any other teams had an issue like this where multiple motors just seem to go bad?

These are directly out of the box. We bought them before build season started from VEX Pro.
If you're still having trouble after troubleshooting on your own make sure to give us a call at 903-453-0802 or emal support@vexrobotics.com and we can help you figure out what is going on and/or replace the Victors if necessary.

Best,
Ricky
