I didn't see this anywhere.


New IFI beta code to correct the "Robot goes crazy" issue, and checklist update...

I wish there was something besides a beta version; I hate the thought of putting beta software on our 'bot. I think I'll just keep using the 06 controller and radios until IFI takes this out of beta.

However, IFI does deserve tons of credit for dealing with 1000-some teams freaking out about an issue they already know about. I wonder how many of those IFI guys stayed up real late for this fix. Thanks IFI!
