Spontaneous Linmot/Brake failure

During operation of the gokart, it was observed that the linmot enters the not-operational state without apparent reason typically 10-20 minutes into the trial. Subsequent to that event, the LinmotEmergencyModule
prevents the gokart from further accelerating. In one instance, the linmot stopped sending status messages altogether (20[ms] after failure).

Temporary solution: do not activate LinmotEmergencyModule
, but beware that the brake by joystick may not be operational. Deceleration can still be accomplished by
- applying opposite motor torque
- pressing the brake by foot
