When we try to calibrate the bad ones, they just continue blinking yellow. They don't flash red/green/yellow like the good ones do. At first we thought it might've been our CIM motor somehow blowing it up, but we swapped a Victor out with another and it worked fine.
We are using AM Super Shifters, and pushed the robot maybe a maximum of 8-12 inches on the ground on low gear last night when we tried to get it driving. Could this have blown the speed controllers?
edit: Swapped a bad one out with another, and we have liftoff. Sure would be nice to know how it broke. The manual says the problem is "internal damage"- which could be anything.
we used to walk barefoot through five feet of snow to get to school, uphill both ways, with just barbed wire for mittens, and we liked it! - dlavery [more]
