Everyone who's had radio problems this year have called IFI about it, right?

We had the common problem of loss of signal. I followed the information on the IFI website FAQ forum then called for additional information.

We think ours is solved..... what we did was.....

1. Installed the updated code
2. Took the OI Radio and mounted it Vertical away from the controls.
3. Moved the RC radio to the highest point available on the robot away from motors and structure (antena is clear line of site at all times).

Once we did this all the problems went away.

OHHHHH I also turned off my hallway motion detector used to warn me of persons that are coming to my shop.
