Problems with LabView Default Code

As fast as you tell it to be. The error is caused by the Motor Safety for the drive code (since the error cites RobotDrive as the error's source). That means that the code has exceeded the time limit (defaults to 100 ms) set for the maximum time between updates to a motor's speed (this prevents runaway motors). Each time you set a new value to the motor, the timer is reset until the next update. You can change the timeout for the safety by using the Safety Config VI (WPI Robotics Library->RobotDrive->Advanced) and setting the timeout to whatever value you want.

But in order to solve the bigger problem, I'd recommend going through your code and trying to fix anything that could be slowing it down this much. Often, an unhandled error somewhere in your code is the culprit. Or you could have loops executing within your teleop code that cause one iteration to take too long. Or you could just have too much code in your loop and it simply takes too long to execute.
