Re: pic: Highlander Robotics reverted gearing shifter

This looks really good Joe! Will 1687 be running these at BattleCry later this month?

Any concerns about using lexan as your sideplates instead of aluminum? Not necessarily for cracking but also for flexibility of those plates.

Either way it looks really nice, can't wait to hear how they work out for that defensive monster you guys made this season!

We had many debates about running 3 CIM ss, 2 CIM two speed, or 3 CIM two speed and debated the main breaker tripping.

In the end we ran 3 CIM ballshifters (as it was cheaper than WCP 2 CIM shifters) and tripped our main breaker once during the final seconds at UNH. After having to play 5 semi final matches our robot was getting very worn out and in the finals we t-boned 176 for a solid 7 seconds before tripping with 5 seconds left on the clock.
