Hey, anyone know if it's against the rules to replace the main internal breaker on the power distribution board with a larger (ie. Higher wattage) one?
If not, I have a lot of stuff to do so our robot doesn't blow another fuse during a match...
Our captain just now realized that we don't have unlimited amperage and that there's no such thing as electromagnetic feedback from the CIM motors, and that our two giant fans, onboard compressor, belt motors, drive motors, mini-belt motors, and solenoid setup don't draw more amperage than the main breaker fuse will allow.
So it's up to me, the programmer, to fix the robot so it still has all of those devices, and they still can be pushed up to their limits, without blowing the fuse. Before the end of the month.
I kinda feel like that guy from the Apollo 13 mission...
