Not that I know all of the details on the radio issue, but it sounds to me like they have identified a firmware issue with the model that they were using. It sounds like working with the radio providers, they have identified a model without the issue. Rather than replace all the radios for a rare complication, they have a plan to deal with a known issue if and when it occurs.

Again, I'm not an expert, but I assume that proprietary radio bands, especially ones with lots of bandwidth are susceptible to implementations issues in firmware and logistical surprises too.

There is nothing about the new system that precludes a special band or radio, but using off-the-shelf products, teams can pretty easily have their own N speed setups in their school or shop.

I'm also curious what you mean by FPGA overhead?
