Hi All,
In the github documentation for the PCB, there is a new workaround file ("Motor-EntstoerungREV20150531") about protecting the motor driver and the rest of the electronics from inductive switching loads due to the wheel motors stopping and reversing as well as suppressing some other noise.
While I do not read German, in browsing that forum using (the much better than nothing) Google Translate, I noticed that there is a new protective circuit board (due to Jurgen Lange) being discussed and indeed Markus at Marotronics appears already to be hot on the trail of stocking the components in the shop.
Google Translate failed to translate the whole document into English, so I just spent a couple of hours with it feeding Google Translate the German text paragraph by paragraph -- and making some minor corrections where I could understand enough from context to make the result into smoother English.
The result is attached for everyone's benefit. Please note, the original German text is still in place, but the translations are attached as notes in the PDF.
Hope this helps someone else understand the scope of the problem.
