Motors

I think that this year there is a great deal of potential to see more smoking, burning, and otherwise ill motors than in the past couple of years.

For one, any robot trying to push, pull, drag, or lift and move two or three goals is looking at a pretty heavy load on their drive system.

Also, if there are two bots with great traction pulling at either side of a goal, in attempt to bring it to their scoring zone, there could be a lot of amps drawn.

Possibly the most strenous task might be to move a robot of the opposing team to your home zone.

Does this seem logical, or am I forgetting something simple?
