Just a theory. We wanted to try to recover one of them but didn't have all of the necessary bits available in a timely manner without interrupting robot work. I'd still like to try if you want to try and get one to us but I suspect Omar and crew at CTRE will be able to provide you with a fix. Controller did not have the magic smoke smell and nothing seemed wrong with it from a visual observation standpoint.
