They are working pretty good for us right now. We done most of our testing and they seem to work really good just for driving around and shooting. Our next testing will be to put it though some pushing matches with our other robots and see how they handle. It will give us a good idea as our practice bot uses jags and our competition bot is using talons.

I don't understand what you're saying here.

The Power Distribution Board is intended to be wired so that the red/power and black/return terminals for each breaker-protected branch circuit are adjacent, not opposite. Regardless, all of the black terminals are connected directly to the (-) battery terminal, and the breaker only interrupts current to the red terminal.
