Re: The Camera's power cuts in and out when the compressor kicks on

How is your camera connected to your robot's frame? You might be providing an extra path back to the battery through the camera. This would blow a self-resetting breaker on the PD and cause it to lose power.

Check your camera and your compressor for shorts to chassis.
