Since it had only driven 20 feet, I doubt that the victor it's self was very hot. We ran the better part of a match with a damaged fan on a drive Victor, and it survived.

I would suspect either a faulty victor (perhaps a tough competition season has finally taken its toll and something gave), or that 40 amp breaker. My bet would be on the breaker, since from what I gatherd, this was the first time your bot had used them. If thats all that had changed between competition and this demo, then its the likely culprit.

When your gearbox bound up, was it a sudden thing or does friction slowly build up?
