Re: COMM lost way to many times

We experienced the same thing at both the Arkansas and Rocket City Regionals. After speaking to other teams at Rocket City, the consensus was the power connection at the radio. It isn't as reliable as the D-Link. I found ours had backed out a little over an 1/8" and most likely lost connection briefly when we struck the wall in autonomous. Bomb Squad mentioned that they had experienced some issues prior to competition and had hot glued their connector, they didn't have any further issues with that connection.

It's extremely frustrating to say the least....Especially when Bob starts fussing! (cause usually he's right)
