Re: Compressed air for rapidly cooling motors?

A few years ago, our team used a high output squirrel cage fan to cool the robot between matches, especially in the finals,,we not sure if it helped but there wasn't a problem. Where we know it did help was with the circuit breakers as the drive team knew that the cooler breakers eliminated lag. It also helped that we replaced all of the drive train breakers going into the finals. We were runner up finalists, so it didn't hurt.,, It's the little things that break you, stay after them.
