Re: Interference

Neither, actually, the Vex controller has always interfered with the tv and does now. But that really had nothing to do with it... sorry. I was unclear about what I was trying to ask.

My robot is getting extreme interference from something or some how and it just started. I've taken it outside and it does it out there, too. It's gotten really bad. I have the original crystal in it and have made sure they are tight and secure. I've replaced the controller, the micro controller, and I have raised the antenna up. It was serpentined in a 5x15 plate b/c I don't have the antenna sleeve so I used a pen and wrapped and zip-tied it to it. But nothing has been working. I've tried turning all of the electronics off.

Everytime there is interference the light blinks in the micro controller. I don't know what else it could be. Maybe I should try a different reciever. Maybe that could be it. I have two kits so I can interchange these but it doesn't seem like they work.

And btw, it seems like it does this only after I tell it to do something and then stop. Then it goes crazy like. But if I leave it sit it doesn't do anything.
