Hi everyone,

I have recently tried to implement new features in my robot, by programming in C, compiling it into a hex file and uploading it into my robot.

However, once the robot has gone into basic pose, it seems to be stuck, with a "stucked" sound.

Anyone has any idea on what might be the cause? Incorrect initialisation of hardware/software?

Looping errors?

I would greatly appreciate it, if you guys would give me some pointers! :D

Do you mean its stuck after reloading original firmware ? Or your firmware has a problem ?

If its oringinal firmware - whats the status of LEDs s? Could it be you need to recharge the battery ?

it's "stuck" after uploading the C firmware.

It does not seem to be responding to my remote control via IR, however, I am able to control it via HyperTerminal? Surprising huh? :D

I suppose I should look into the IR part of the code eh? :wink:

Have a look at the IR code - I think each remote control has a code that has to match your IR remote. This is so two remotes won't clash on the same robot. I have disabled this test in the code I use.
