Jaguar running Mini CIM flashes red?
Hello!

We have a Black Jaguar running a Mini CIM motor. When we order it to give 100% power forward, we can see the motor is trying to move, but doesn't. After a few seconds (around 3) the Jaguar stops delivering power, flashes red for a while and then goes back to solid yellow.

What can cause this behaviour? When the motor is connected straight to a battery it spins quite fast...

Thanks!
