Re: Talon Failure

For being a brand new speed controller, it really is rather amazing how few issues we've had with it - no unexplained failures and such. But, this post highlights the reason we put fans on all 10 of our Talons - We've run the robot almost continuously for hours on end climbing the tower, with no issues from the controllers... even though the Mini-CIM was hot enough to fry an egg on!
