Re: Robot control cuts out
...you could also be tripping the breakers...?
I would look into that...and I am surprised that I was the first to mention it lol

when our controlls cut out due to power drain, it only shuts out for about half a second...

we too are using all 5 cims...
sometimes when pushing full force, the orange light on top of the robot turns completely off haha
I am concerned about power this year.
Nobody really saw how the CRIO and the power distribution took to the harsh world of high current draw...last year we were all sliding around simply spinning the wheels haha
