If you are wondering how the SD540's heat up over time, mindsensors and Talon 540 performed a few tests on one of our old robots.

That's great! Can we get the drivetrain information that produced those temperatures? Wheels, ratios and motor configurations please. There seems to be a section of your website for it, but that information does not seem to be there.

Do you have any thing to show the test conditions such as ambient temperature, motor current. These have a significant effect on the measured value. Test results are meaningless without knowing the test conditions.
