Re: Last min suggestions on Robot controller issue?

Well, i went over eveything with a fine tooth comb and a flashlight (something i didnet have yesterday) And i found a tiny metal sliver that had shorted the pins wedged in such a way that made it almost impossbile to see without alot of light and was wedged in the pins where it would not come out with the weak air compressor and vac we had at the pit.

So thanks for the help again everyone! It solved our camera problems slightly, i think more of our issue was either with the TTL chip (Loose connectons) or the camera (loose pwm connection)

I wonder if i could some how take a bit of spare plastic or rubber and build some custom covers for the unused pins.
