Go to Post All I know is that last year in Philadelphi, our camera locked dead onto MOE (Team 365) and their flourescent green shirts during the matches. They might want to consider what would happen if they get pelted with balls during the autonomous period! :ahh: - Greg Marra [more]

Re: Jaguar/Victor screw supplier

I would recommend removing every single painted screw and throwing them in the garbage. There are markings on the motor controllers themselves, and those screws can and will get accidently swapped around. I know this from experience. If you rely on screw color you WILL eventually kill a motor controller. It's not a question of "if", just a question of "when".

Get people used to looking at the markings on the motor controller. If you have trouble seeing them, paint those, not the screws. You'll be happy you did in the long run.
