We also did not have any major field issues. Our issues dealt with RobotC. It seems to have a bug in communications with the motor and servo controllers. When this occurs, the NXT constantly tries to reset the motor and servo controllers. A symptom of the problem is that the external battery will register as off and you will no longer have control of the DC motors and servos. This can be a major problem if a motor is being driven at the time. This problem hit us a couple times in autonomous (we had built in a workaround in software for Teleop - we would cycle DC power on the bot via a LEGO motor) and cost us a match. Our battery was unplugged for the match after smoking a motor (and fused motor lead) at the end of autonomous.
