We had a Victor burn out while the robot was off and pushing the robot. The team member said the victor started smoking while he was pushing it, and when he turned it on, sparks shot out. He said he wasn't pushing it very fast. I always push it until the robot has enough power to turn on the dynamic brakes. Any reason that this occurred? There weren't any signs of metal shavings and the plastic casing on the victor around one of the FETs was melted, and then the middle FET had a blow out as well. The FET on the side that melted lost its heatsink very easily when i removed it. After I replaced it, everything was working like normal.
