Robot Losing Communication when strafing right
On our Mecanum drive, we loaded the auto-generated mecanum code from LabView to make sure the motors are in the correct place and we've noticed that the robot loses communication with the driver station when it tries to strafe right.
Since it was generated by LabView it couldn't have been a programming issue, and we've rechecked wiring over and over again and nothing looks wrong. I'll update you guys on wiring tomorrow when I can touch the robot.
The voltage drops only slightly by about .3 or so volts and then the robot doesn't communicate any more. The driver station says that the robot is communicating and that there is code loaded, teleop is enabled as well. But any inputs from the joystick are not read until we re-enable teleop. We've tried with two different Logitech Attack 3 joysticks to see if it's an input error and they both do the same thing.
We had this problem last year as well and we've never figured it out.
