Question Teleop spontaneously locking up

When testing my team's drive base, teleop is stopping with agressive changes in motor speed.

I'm currently using four Jaguars and CIMs to control the stock arcade drive VI, and all it takes to lock up the robot is a few quick changes between maximum axis values (e.g. left, right, then forward in a second). The robot fails to function after this, but no errors show up in the drive station and teleop remains enabled. The issue can be temporarily resolved by disabling and reenabling teleop, but the same movements will cause the problem to happen again.


While there is no guarantee this is strictly a programming issue, all of the electrical and mechanical connections on the robot base have been checked.

Is anyone else having this issue, or know how to fix it?
