Clues!

Things work when you only have a few motors defined, but then when you add more motors the problem appears. This is a clear indication that the Digital Sidecar is not receiving 12 volt power from the Power Distribution Board. Check the LED labeled "BAT" on the Digital Sidecar and make sure it's lit (the 6V and 5V LEDs should be lit as well).
