At one of the regionals in 2003 I noticed one team (I don't recall the no.) that was using a servos to interface with the Victor 884. The servo was used to activate a switch that was wired to the brake / coaster jumper on the Victor. This enabled the team to actively change the drive system from a dynamic brake system to a coast system. I am not sure what their reasoning was but it was a very clever way to overcome a problem. Simply put the servos can be used to activate switches of all types to suit the needs of the robots.
