Re: DeWalt Transmission questions

I searched through the threads a bit and couldn't find anything on this, so I decided to post it here. Our team is also working on using the 3 speed dewalts for our robot next season. The only thing we are concerned about is if the transmissions are shift on the fly or not. Some of the mentors are really questioning this because of noises we hear between 2nd and 3rd gear. How often can these be shifted while in while in motion? If any, what problems have occurered and what should we do to prevent the problems?
