CONTROL SYSTEM GLITCH

In addition, what orientation is your bot, and what surface are you running it on? We can't run our bots in our room very well because the carpet has padding that gives them too much traction to skid-steer: they end up tripping the self-resetting circuit breakers when the cims stall.

Be careful, because the playing surface is also carpet!

Im a programer from kick3nitx360's team and was wonder if this was the battery what voltage would show on the dashboard? also were only running for 30 min and sometimes only 1 min before the clicking starts, could the battery drain that fast?

Generally the answer is no but if you have a loose wire, the answer is yes if the battery has a significant load. Battery voltage should show 8-12 volts while driving.
