Re: Engine flickering?

Is your shooter on a 40a or 20a breaker? If you're running it on a 20a breaker and its a full CIM than you could very well be tripping the breaker.

Additionally, ensure all cables (ethernet, power, etc) are tight because the vibration from your shooter wheel may be causing the cables to wiggle out of their places.

If this is still causing issues, replace the fuses that the wheel is connected to.

If you're still having issues, replace the CIM and double check wiring.

E/ good info for people whose motors aren't consistently working. Not for you.

Add debug outputs in everything thats calling the shooter motor (including the initialize and finished methods of the shooter command) and post the output + code
