TEST #2:
LeftMotor: v2 Tetrix DC motor
RightMotor: v2 Tetrix DC motor
FlagMotor: Original Tetrix DC motor
LiftMotor: ORIGINAL Tetrix DC motor

NO CRASH! Everything seems to run just fine with one of the original motors as the fourth motor. In fact, I can run all four motors simultaneously at max power, forward and reverse like a madman.
This is extremely interesting. Anyone have any ideas? Our problem was remarkably similar. We "solved" it by adding a dedicated controller but still have no idea what the fundamental issue is.
