I have been having consistent problems where VEXnet would disconnect and the joystick would lose control of the robot. Usually this is not a big problem and we can figure it ourselves via different vexnet keys or whatnot. The issue we are having now is that our arm motors would continue to run in the direction that it was previously moving in BEFORE the disconnect. We’ve ended up with only a couple of broken axles thankfully, as we have to dive to turn the robot off…
I am using the newest revision of robotC and any help is appreciated. Is it a problem with robotC or could it be my code? I’ve already removed my arm state codes and the includes file is a fresh copy.
Many thanks,
Timothy Leung

If it is indeed not my code and nothing wrong with ROBOTC, does that imply the cortex is … malfunctioning … ahh
