Robots may move suddenly, and without warning!

The danger exists whenever you reach inside a
robot...one of the first rules we
teach our rookies is to NEVER EVER touch the
controls when the driving instructor (me) is
inside the robot...

Even then accidents happen...

About 2 days ago, one of our potential drivers,
accidently trimmed the wrong joystick
I got 3 fingers sucked in between
the drive wheel and the timing belt track....
it hurt

it still hurts...

Always be careful...
