My team recently built a double motor flywheel, is there anything we can do make it overheat less?
Pictures would be helpful
Check for bent axles
Check for metal rubbing on metal
Check that all axles are supported at 2 points with a bearing flat
Check that all pieces of C Channel are parallel
Check that all spacers can wiggle just a bit (thickness of a fingernail)

Another thing to add is too make sure to use new gears if you have any. If you don’t, make sure the gears you are using are in very good condition.

Thanks I think I figured it out!
Mind sharing for benefit of other forum members? Maybe drop a pic in here also?
Sure I’ll show a pic later when I am working on my bot
