Re: Strange system problem

Low backup battery is probably causing the resetting when the main voltage dips low. The main voltage could be sagging for some of the reasons listed above. Another possibility is binding in your drivetrain that you can't see, or possibly an intermittent short somewhere tripping your main or secondary breakers and dragging the voltage low enough in the meantime to reset the robot controller.
