We had continuous problems and breakdowns with the banebots transmissions. For example, during a final match in Colorado our bot received a lot of torque from another robot and our transmission broke. We couldn't do anything about it in time and lost the regional... We're switching over to AndyMark or making our own transmission next year. We switched out both transmissions on Thursday in Atlanta and the robot did not break down.
Experienced problems:
- Rounding out the "double d" plate
- too much pressure was put on a shaft and the inside was destroyed
- brass gears were stripped
