Joystick lag with DS being idle.

Hello,

I ran into an issue with the joystick having as much as a .5-3 second delay when the Driver Station was sitting idle for about 20 minutes to an hour with power applied. Once resetting the driver station only, the controls returned to normal.

This is being noted as a warning. I would not want someone being run over by their robot due to this delay. The commands sent from the joystick remain in the memory of the DS and will be eventually sent to the motors.

The cRio is only responding to the commands it receives, I can say that with some confidence because after the DS reset only, it was acting normal.

The firmware in the cRio and the DS are the latest upgrades provided by FIRST. There are no custom programs added yet.

Has this been noticed by any other teams?
