Re: pic: 1751's 2010 robot hanging

In our testing, the side loading problem was not encountered. We geared our motors so that the stall torque was safely less than the belt's breaking force. Once the side load reaches about 150 pounds, the motors have difficulty moving the robot, but the belts still do not break.

In the competition, we'll try to enter only head-on pushing matches.
