Re: How Fast Can you Safely Climb?
Just have the drivers stop pushing the "climb" button, when the bot slams into the touchpad. Since climbers this year (most likely) will only have to be turning in one direction, a simple solution to avoiding having to stall the motors to stay up is just sticking a ratcheting socket wrench on the end of the climber shaft. That should keep the bot from coming back down without having to stall the motors.
