Re: Robot Cool Down Period...?
The time between final matches are a bit hectic, always have a fresh battery or two standing by, if needed ask to borrow one from another team, you should have no problem getting one. Also i know team 836 a few years ago, back when we were using the dewalts had some spare fans rigged up with some spare parts just to cool down the motors every second we could. You could fry an egg on the dewalts after a good finals match.
By having so little time in between matches you really get to test the durability of your robot. Think of your robot as a stock car racer running and running and not a drag racer that has to be rebuilt and fixed after one time out.
But I haven't been around first in about a year i am sure some things have changed since my high school days.
