Re: Victor Burnouts
Al,
That sounds reasonable. My only point here is that some teams really gear their motors down, so it is sorta kinda maybe possible that by backdriving they are spinning the motors much faster than the wheels. I'm drawing at straws here, aren't I. What I saw was a team pushing their robot in a parking lot, then complaining of a burning smell. On closer examination, the victors wouldn't turn on. Since it was another team's, I couldn't get a close look at the vics, but a couple mentors blamed it on backdriving. I have avoided it ever since.
Thanks for setting me straight!
