Re: hey got a tech question about AM Trannys
We actually ran into the pin issue at NYC. The robot shifted for the better part of two competitions before finally shearing a roll pin in our last qualification match. We are currently looking into replacing the roll pin with a hardened dowel pin to give it some strength. Be careful doing something like this though, because the shaft is so small at the hole's location. You need to make sure you won't damage(via shifting not installation) the shaft changing to a dowel pin. At the competition we would have normally just changed the air pressure but it was needed for other parts of the robot.
