Re: [OCCRA]: Servo issue at competition

The servo overheating was our first idea. However, the match where the servo failed was right after lunch, so it had been sitting for at least 25 minutes without being on.

We have been running it a lot to see what went wrong and we can't recreate it. We think it may have been a one time bug. I also have no clue how old the servo is, but its working fine now and I haven't changed a thing. Even the battery was the same as I worked on it this morning, so I don't think it is programming, I think either something somewhere got stuck or the microcontroller decided to mess with us...

We are going to try again this Thursday with minor program and build tweaks and see if it works. Thanks for trying to help.
