Go to Post One last thing, if a mechanical part fails on you, sometimes you can get a little bit of noise back into it by yelling at it, kicking it, or pounding on it with your fist. This might put enough back into it so it will work for a few more minutes. - KenWittlief [more]

Electrical Harness

It seems to me that having a totally detachable electronics board would be a good thing. I am envisioning all of the motors, fans, sensors - anything that is attached to the robot frame - connected to 1 or 2 harnesses. When you want to change out a Victor you simply detach the harness and pull out the electronics board and voila!

Is this a good idea? The problems I see are voltage drop along the connections and heat. What do you think? Thanks.
