Re: Compressed air for rapidly cooling motors?
To clarify, I'm mostly referencing the second finals match of IRI in 2014, towards the end of the video you can see members of 254 spraying their motors with what looks like compressed air, in order to super cool their motors for the next match.
It had been suggested that we use the same method, since we also had thermal problems with the CIM heat in 2014 in the elims (especially finals) matches of Galileo, but we ended up fanning them with a sheet of polycarbonate since it was a common belief (on 1318) that super cooling CIMs was bad for them. I'm expecting to have more thermal issues this year, even at the PNW District Championship next weekend.
