Re: Van De Graff effect on shooter
FYI, before touching the electronics, touch your robot first and discharge the static.
If you use plexiglas or other polycarbonate parts you will notice that they get dirtier faster from the static build up.
Static plays havoc with electronics. I should know, I work in electronic control board factory and we a VERY conscientious about static ESD shoes, and smock). Our floor is a special ESD floor.
I wonder if FIRST will let us use a drag chain on the bottom of our robot?
