Re: What Happens When Metal Gets Into A Jaguar (SMOKE!!!!)

The real question is not whether any teams have had metal in a speed controller, it's whether any teams haven't.

The Victors were really easy to get metal into if you didn't cover them before drilling/cutting. One bit of metal and the same thing happened as you had with a Jaguar. Jaguars are a bit harder to do that with, as you know, but not impossible.

Moral of the story: Cover your electronics when cutting/drilling/producing chips and shavings.
