: However . . . tonight we saw a drill motor smoke under a stall condition (friction problem, btw), and it still appears to work fine. Has anyone ever seen that?

We did just see something similar on last year's robot. We were pulling two goals up the bridge and saw a little smoke (I wasn't there but I heard about it). The next day the gearbox failed and we broke a chain. Are they related? I don't know, but watch that motor carefully.
