Victor-PWM Cable connections

[Billfred]

I haven't tested this, and as such I'm not making any warranties, but what about a thin bar that goes through all of the PWM cables just above the connector and keeps the RC connection from being pulled up accidentally? (I'm imagining something like the gates to the FRC field, except the other end would unlatch as well.)

I never had this problem this year, although I was told by the guy who wired last year's 'bot that he had this problem and I should be careful. So, I looked at the board differences, and the only major difference I can see is this year's has less distance to the controllers from the RC and there is zero stress. The whole setup is also mounted at a 90 degree angle to the floor as opposed to flat as in last year's I don't know if that helped it or not...

An old fix that i can remember using on the old victor with the old style of PWM connector was to put a small dab of hot glue on the connector, this can also be done on the other end where they all connect to the RC. Using hot glue makes them stay in place but you can peel it off if you need to remove the connections.
