Re: The 8.2 (or 8.3) Battery Voltage Bug
On our controller the problem never occurred on startup although most of the others I've personally seen occurred immediately at startup.
It hit us after the robot had been on awhile. The symptoms will differ with your individual control setup. In one instance ours suddenly began attempting to rapid fire our poof balls all on it's own. The more common case was the gunner would suddenly find himself controlling the left drive train, or when idling the robot suddenly began driving away slowly. You will see mechanisms moving without orders and controls that won't control.
No recurrence for us in competition with the IFI library update and blocking out bank 15. But the controller doesn't run very long in matches.
I did see the problem in a couple of other robots at competition, but they didn't have the newest patches in.
