Re: Motor limit for Denso 2010?

Also, to be clear, the rule is not 4 Denso motors but THE FOUR IN THE KOP -- that means 2LH and 2RH motors. I've inspected teams that had traded with another team because for one reason or another they wanted/needed all the same hand motors on their robot.

The performance may be the same*, but the rules are clear.


For what it's worth.

*well, actually often this is not quite true for most handed motors. They usually start exactly the same, but they often acquire slight biases or drifts over the years as tools wear, etc -- still in spec but one hand is almost always different than the other by the end of production.... ...but I digress...
