Is it normal for YARBO to bust a 360° on the dock to start the plan? Or is this something I have done?

It’s not normal but it’s a known issue. Supposedly they are working on a hotfix. I’d open a ticket so they can track it.

Strangely, I have yet to see mine do the weird turn thing on the dock since I got the firmware update.
Oh great, now I’ve gone and jinxed myself. It’s probably going to ONLY do the weird turns from now on since i mentioned it…

Don’t say its name three times in a row!

I believe rotation in single place is general issue for Yarbo (any module). I experienced it many times with Blower, if something is complicated Yarbo starts to dance. After installing SAM module recently I see the same issue. Many pathrol paths start in single place, Yarbo arrives to the place and starts to rotate like dog trying to catch his tail. Yarbo should stop and decide what to do next instead of 10+ useless motion in single place. I am lucky as all such cases happen on concrete in my case but I can’t imagine what will happen with the lawn after such behaviour.

Mine are all on concrete too. 
I wonder if I have too many pathways/sidewalks too close to the docking station. It pops off the dock and has 3 pathways staring it in the face. I’m gonna move some.

I’ve yet to see the 360 on takeoff. But then again I haven’t ran it since the update. I’m still out of pocket.
I’m worried though. Any idea how prevalent the problem is?
I haven’t seen it with the snowblower.

It seems to be hit or miss. I’d say watch it the first couple of runs at least.
I feel like I have launched 4 times and 2 were a 360° It’s violent and fast. I have sidewalk entrances at the edge of my dock. It looks like it is preforming a zero turn like it’s at the end of of sidewalk plan.
