I've never taken the pins out.

I prefer to be dead weight if something stops the robot from moving under its own power.

I also like to be able to sit on a ramp with no power.

And I like the braking effect when resting the motors in a pushing match.

that all being said. Many many teams do take them out with no mechanical difficulties



Just killing time until we can get a new control box in our hands....
