Re: Field Fault

Would post vid, but max zip size is 5mb and ours is 218.

We start autonomous, our arm tries to launch prematurely (held back by cord). A few others move, nothing noticeable. Teleoperatated: We are stuck, controls not responding. Our mid-field partner also doesn't move and our far field one seems to move fine. About 30-40 seconds in, the mid-field partner moves forward and stops. At the same time, our far field partner tried to cross the bump and suddenly stopped. The mid-field partner starts moving back and forth, turning sometimes. About a minute in, our partners seem to regain control and both move now under control. 10-15 seconds later, mid stops again and far flips from bump crossing attempt (not a field fault there). Last few seconds, mid moves back and forth again and we have been stuck the whole match (I believe we dissabled our bot about halfway in the match). Match ends.
