Re: Spontaneous motor skipping?

Yes we had exactly the same symptoms early in our build season. At first it was manifested in a compressor that wouldn't go up to 120psi, then we noticed the intermittent Watchdog Not Fed error. It also caused the motors to hitch and jerk when they should just be running. We widened the setpoint for the watch dog to .4 seconds and made sure every bracketed piece of code feeds the dog and haven't had an issue since.
