Re: [FTC]: Tetrix motor controller weirdness with 4 motors

Thanks Al for your suggestions. I wasn't clear earlier. In the test the lift motor's gear was removed from the drive shaft so there was no load on he motor when it was ran.

We ran out of time and went with a plastic gear motor last Saturday. We didn't have a problem with that. whew! I plan to look into this whole issue more carefully when the season is over.

Static electricity history of the NXT... Hadn't thought of that as a possibility. We only have our one NXT so can't test that but maybe I can borrow one.
