Re: Anybody using Talons?

We are switching over to Talons completely this year. However, due to the small and more compact size of our robot, I wired the fans from inside the Jaguars onto the Talons to prevent too much heat in such close quarters

Re: Anybody using Talons?

Unfortunately we missed the FirstChoice window for Talons, and then our mentor tried to put off the order and group things to save on shipping and it went out of stock, and then missed it again when they went back into stock for 6 hours the other night.

So now we're using 5 Jaguars, depending on how well our robot handles with only 2 CIMs on the drivetrain, in which case we'd use 7.

It's a very tight squeeze.

Re: Anybody using Talons?

I wish we had 10 talons. we only have 8, so now I have to replace the 2 missing ones with victors, which means I have to cut holes in my beautifully decorated cover plates, becuase the victors are too tall to fit under them.

Motors are powered by a magical black smoke. when the smoke leaks out, the motors stop working.

The difficult we do today; the impossible we do tomorrow. Miracles by appointment only.

Impossible is just a big word for small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.
