Unhappy Drill motors
We are experiencing difficulties with the motors and are looking for some advice. Yesterday, the driving team was using the robot when the steering suddenly failed. When we opened the robot up one of the blue wires (we left the original 10 ga. on) had unsoldered from the heat. We were wondering about two things, what to do with the wires (resolder it? clip it? unsolder and use different wires) and how to fix the heat from the motors (fans? heat sinks? exotic ideas?)

Thanks
