Thanks! this is great info/advice. I feel much better about our prospects of resolving it quickly now. We will need to borrow a clamp ammeter from someone though.

Are you using the kit gearboxs? We are using a two speed pneumatically shifted gearbox. It is possible that the pressure to the pistons got increased somehow and is causing binding.

What motors are driving?Each gearbox is powered by 1 CIM

Are all your motors moving in the right direction? Yes, they worked fine in all of our qual matches.

Do you have a compressor on board? Yes
