We backed it off to 8 Jag's and everything suddenly worked great!

Hi Mike, just out of curiosity was your team using a RS-232 CAN adapter or a 2CAN? I ask since my team is currently experimenting with using a 2CAN, and it would be concerning (to say the least) if timeout issues still happen w/ the 2CAN.
I don't understand why it should matter if your robot is 100% student built, 100% engineer built or somewhere in between. As long as you are Inspired (I word again) FIRST is getting its point and primary goal across. - [more]
