That just sounds like some kind of controlled Havok Bomb, in my view. A picture would help us figure out what was happening better than simply a description of the phenomena, though.

Someone with global/admin powers will move this to its proper place in general discussion...

In the meantime, its not uncommon for axles to get spun/pulled out of their bases when there is enough force involved. This has the advantage of making your bot spin faster (like a trinity glitch bot) but unlike the trinity glitch, you are usually able to stop spinning (IIRC).

If it does it consistently then you may have something.

so what the heck is a thread about the trinity glitch making in the real robotics section ?

moved to general discussion.

Basically, that's just the same principal as axle loading. Once an axle gets up to a high enough speed, it will leave it's mount. You can see the effect on the wheels of many SnS, especially ones that do use the trinity glitch to spin faster than normal.
