Re: Buggy BAG Motors

Paul, our shooter failed twice in eliminations at FLR -- not positive it was the BAG motors (which we had already checked for dead spots before installing them as replacements for the bad ones), but we're going to pull them once we get the robot out of the bag at Buckeye, and I'll send them your way. I'd love to hear what you find with those two in particular, as they tested good before use. (I'm not saying the failure was the motors. I can't figure out what else it could possibly be, as our shooter worked great all through quals and nothing changed, but at the very least it will be another data point for you guys as you work through this issue).

Thanks for your prompt attention to the matter. Your customer service is great! (As are your mecanum wheels and versaplanetary gearboxes!)
