There was an explosion!!! (URGENT! TODAY IS BAG AND TAG!)
Hi!

I'm in charge of the electrical wiring for my team and I burst down crying in frustration today. We had finished mounting our kicking mechanism and the robot was basically done, we were just gonna practice driving. I turn on the robot and one of our Victor 888's just sparks really loud! I'm really frustrated and panicking right now! What could it be? Could it be that we connected the fans to the V+ V- part of the Victor so it could get it's power from there? How do you guys wire your fans/Victors?? PLEASE HELP!!! TODAY IS BAG AND TAG!!!!
