Re: RS550 Causing Robot Disable

It shouldn't be disabling the robot at 11V. Should go much lower.

Have you tried stalling other motors or mechs on the robot to pull 40+ amps to see if it's always shutting off when you pull moderate current, or only when you pull moderate current on that single circuit?

I think the primary suspect in this case is the motor and gearbox that you swapped in.
