I have been having my students start using the XRP robots.  
Almost all my robots start moving as soon as plugged in.  
Almost all show a code error of some sort when I start  
lots of the robots seem to be very glitchy when turning and need some help often to keep turning.  
What the heck am I doing wrong.  
Thanks

> Almost all show a code error of some sort when I start:

What is the error code? When a robot is started the very first time it will blink the green LED to show it is working. It will do this until the Micropython is updated by XRPCode

> Almost all my robots start moving as soon as plugged in

The XRP will run the last program that was run on it each time it is powered on. If it has attached to the browser before and XRPCode is running it should auto attach to XRPCode which should stop the robot from running once it attaches.

> glitchy when turning

We have seen this with the XRP on some surfaces. We will be releasing a version for XRPLib that should fix that shortly.

Please let us know if this helps, or if you continue to have problems.
