why did technokats have lots of problems?

Before you do that i would work out the power you could achieve with just the CIM and the Drill's. Those 4 can pull 160 amps which theoretically is enough to trip the breaker(it really won't). Secondly you need to find really high traction wheels if you really want to use that power. i think the technokats tore up the carpet once with that 6 motor system at nats(they had those metal treads). It might have been a different team, but either way they had more power than they could use.

Heck we ripped carpet all the time...but anyway at certain points during matches last year we pulled over 200 amps with the old drill motors, cims and FP motors....and that was on a 60amp breaker...

basically right now with the motors and assemblies we have delt with, 6 has been overkill...keep working on it though, maybe FIRST will give out new motors next year (this isnt a confirmed fact nor a rumor.)
