Go to Post There's a balance to it all, when the engineers guide the students, and both cooperate to build a robot. There can be no better way then when both sides are in cooperation - the true spirit of FIRST. - Jim McGeehin [more]

Re: What will it take to overheat A victor?

On our 06' bot we had a basic 2 sim drive with omni wheels in the front and they went not much more than 6-8 min of constant driving before they were stalling out because of heat. In a actual match this wasn't an issue but in finals or practice they would overheat and cut out.

Are 07' bot had a 4 cim swerve drive and when we were in are low gear and were in a pushing match with another team the motors would sometimes stall out which was causing them to heat up very fast. At ARC we were very lucky that we got enough time between finals that they could cool down.
