Go to Post Recently my wife and I met some mentors from Michigan with their wives at Disney World. It seems that I'm not the only mentor who needs to bribe their wives with vacations before they sign up to mentor FRC for another year... - Mark Holschuh [more]

Re: pic: 931 Preliminary Electrical Layout

Richard,
Looks really cool, nice job! I would eliminate the ground stud and return the negative leads directly to the distro block. You save some weight in #6 and crimp on connectors and lower the series resistance, not to mention a single point failure if the stud hardware loosens.
How do you like the crimper and the Power Poles so far? We add a touch of solder to the connector just to be sure, before assembly. They crimp on the #12 Chalupa leads OK as well, but again a touch of solder just to be sure.
