Re: pic: Octocanum Module
I really like how compact this is. I would be wary of running 8 motors in a drivetrain. It's altogether too easy to draw too much current, especially in traction mode, and trip breakers. Teams that ran 6-8 motors this year didn't have that problem because there was no defense and no pushing, but I know a few teams personally we worked with who had that problem in 2014 and even 2013.

FIRST is like riding a bike. At first it may seem hard and confusing, but after a few tries you get the hang of it and its smooth sailing from then on out. - Tom Bottiglieri [more]
