I watched Team 11 drive the robot down to 6V with the RoboRIO onboard.
They periodically would loose field comms but for a short time (3 second tops).

I think the RoboRIO has some undervoltage protection going on.

We've had an older battery hit 5.2 volts in a match before. Needless to say, we couldn't have done that without the backup battery.

I feel the need, the need to get out my Hayes compatible 300 baud Commodore modem cartridge and dial a BBS.

Is it wrong that I had DTMF tones along with handshake going through my mind when reading this?

It's only wrong if you prefix it with a Capt'n Crunch whistle ;) .
