Anton. Removing the pin allows the robot to free wheel and not damage the planetary gears inside ( not a good thing ).
Many bots will meet their demise at the end of the bridge when they fly down the ramp and hit the floor angle with power on, so becareful?
Take the pins out if your considering pushing/pulling the goal up the ramp.

: i think this question was already asked....but...

: When exactly do those pins inside break and when they do, what exactly occurs?

: My guess is it came in very handy in the past years when a lot of stress from bumping occurred... do we need them this year?

: I guess the impt question is how often do they break and how much would it take to break it.
