Re: Losing connection when ramping over defenses

We tried pulling on every wire, but we'll try some more tomorrow morning

We'll also look at the power connectors, and check to see if there is any debris in the RoboRios (this happens on both our practice and competition bots, which is concerning).

The only consistent thing we could see in our DS logs that was bad (as far as I know, which is not a lot ) is that a bunch of "5V brownouts" happen. We aren't really seeing the battery voltage on the DS go that low at all, and they also seem to pop up when driving normally, so I am unsure if that is a normal thing to see happen every so often while driving. It might also be worth noting that we don't actually have any 5V stuff wired up to the roborio at the time.
