Re: speed issues

Looking though yesterdays logs I do not see any brown outs and although I am somewhat guessing as to what the robot was doing at various points. It appears to me that even when the mini-CIM that power the shooter were probably stalled the current draw did not spike, all the spikes that I saw were at motor start up.

How much additional current does a stalled motor appear to draw on this graph?
I am beginning to think it is a mechanical problem with our strength shooter arms.
