Re: how to wire the new two motor gearbox
That is one possibility, and would work. I used a y cable to test my dual motor winch last year. But you can also do this in programming. Thats what my team did with last years gearboxes which used the drill and cim. I would recommend the programming route, it would be more reliable to do it that way. If for some reason a cable becomes detached during the match, you are less likely to lose both pwm cables controlling one side. If you use a y cable, and the cable comes out during a match (say another robot accidentally does that, or it is just loose and comes out due to Violante driving), then you loose an entire drive side. Just the way I think about it.
Drok00 - well that depends on exactly how your transmission is set up, but if you are talking about the transmissions that come in the kit, both motors are spinning in the same direction.
