Re: [FTC]: Playing Forensic Roboticist.

We are using NXT-G for our programming and have only had 2 issues. Not sure if #1 is related to memory loss (or whatever it may be) but sounded similar to your experience.

1. We had an extremely long wait from when we connected to the FMS to when the actual match started. Our robot did absolutely nothing. In matches after that, if we had a long wait we would stop our autonomous program and restart it. It seemed to work. We never had that problem again.

2. In the middle of a match one of the controllers stopped working. It was controlling the 4 12v-DC motors. The other controller worked fine controlling our NXT motors and servos.
