I just looked for while loops thinking maybe I mistakenly typed it instead of an "if" statement or something, but didn't find anything. Any other ideas on what may cause this?

Thanks for the help!
This sounds almost like your Master Processor is messing you up, especially since you say that the battery indicator LED flashes slowly. Try to first reload the master code using a different computer, a different serial port, and redownload the code, as some information may be getting messed up. Also start fresh, preferably with IFI's code and see if you encounter the same issues. If you don't have any issues, go back to the default version of Kevin's code, if that doesn't give you issues, then load your code to see if that gives you any issues.

Basically, go through some troubleshooting steps. Go back to what you know should work, and if it doesn't, then call IFI for them to fix your RC.

Nothing that you code should mess with the indicator lights on the RC... this is what leaves me to believe that your master code is corrupted.
