 I've been inspired for real engineering during the build season and on the playing field, but the inspiration I found in the pits is often for creative thinking and intuition. - artdutra04 [more] |

Re: AndyMark CIMple Box Stripped Out
For anyone still interested, the cause of the drivetrain malfunction was two completely stripped 12 tooth CIM motor gears. According to our lead pit mentor, we oiled it routinely throughout competition, but we must have let it slip this summer. Proper lubrication is certainly important to avoid things like this happening, we're just lucky it happened at the end of a demo, not at an offseason competition.
