For anyone, if your robot acts strangely, you should ask the IFI representative immediately if they saw anything. It may save you a lot of time later on.

I agree with Joe, the IFI guys are all really great to work with and are always very willing to help troubleshoot your problems. And sometimes its faulty equipment, but more often then not its simple problems like bad cables, disconnected cables, poor connections, bad batteries, bad charge, disconnected battery, inefficent mechanics, shorts, or other problems on our end of the stuff.
I'd say check all the stuff listed above with the batteries, and the shorts, and all that. And if your still having problems, track down one of the IFI guys and see what they cant do to help you.
I know from talking with the IFI reps at Boilermaker and MWR and observing their software in action, they can tell alot about the control system from their handy dandy laptop, everything from disconnected modems to a dead backup is easy to diagnois for them
