Re: Robot Controller 12v Power Spade Pulls Out PCB

We had this problem with an old controller. Since we didn't have to worry about surviving competition, we put it back in and resoldered.

However, this year, one of the teams we are mentoring didn't just have the connector pull out, it was sheared off, so the pin was still in the hole. That makes it impossible to ensure a good mechanical connection.

In either case, I wouldn't trust any repair to last for a long competition season.
