At our first team meeting, we did a demo of our last year's robot to our incoming members. When we ran the robot, we had a few problems. The light, and all the motors kept going on and off, on and off. On the controller the radio LED was flashing. Then, at a demo we had to do on teacher's institue day the samething happened. We don't know what it is!! But here's another thing....after we took out the wires running from the controller to the relay the motors still were going on and off, until a few minutes later. Then everything was fine. Someone suggested that the light pulled too much amps so all the other motors were going on and off...But after we changed the batter to a brand new one the problem did not stop. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks
