Re: Robot Power Issues
In that particular YouTube video that you posted I can say that I don't think you ever fully lost power, or wireless communications...

I can tell because the green light on the scoring table stayed green the entire time (save for one second where the ref walked between the light and the camera taking video), which tells me that all the robots on the field were still connected. If your CRio reboots, you will show a loss of communication with the field and that light would change color. How that helps? I'm not sure, but it could point to two completely separate non-related issues.

Any video of the other match?
