Scenario 1: prop plug connected to propeller with the usb cable connected to both prop plug and computer
Result: system works flawlessly
Scenario 2: prop plug removed entirely.
Result: system works flawlessly
Scenario 3: prop plug connected to propeller with the usb cable not connected
Result: program crashes and reboots every second or so..
Scenario 4: same as scenario 3 but i have commented out "FullDuplexSerial.Start" in my program
Result: program seems to run fine but there is obviously no communications.
why could this be happening?? the way i have this project built is with the prop plug installed and connected all the time but i dont always need it connected to a computer. what could be going on here?????
