One thing we've learned over the years is to always check the PWM cables.
I can not tell the troubles we have had with them.

It can't be software, because it can't tell under how much load the wheels are in (as far as I know)
And we can't check the PWM cables being that the robot is bagged and going to be crated and shipped to philly

If so, this is how they are supposed to work. 
As for not working on the ground, check the output voltage with a voltmeter while it is not working and post the results here. For both the non-working and working please. |
Well this didn't happen to us on our robot from last year
And we can't check the voltages being that the robot is bagged and going to be crated and shipped to philly. besides, how do we check voltage when the bot is moving?
