Re: Breaker Panel Diagnostics
We didn't use the breaker panel hookup either. I'm pretty sure we never popped a breaker. The kit drivetrain had enough torque to spin wheels, so we don't stall the CIMs. When our arm got stalled in autonomous mode once, the van door motor sheared the roll pin we used rather than stalling the motor, so that didn't pop the 30A it was on. That was it for motors for us.

It was nice having one panel rather than having one for the MAXI breakers and one for the ATC breakers.
