Re: What to do when your robot loses Comms

One thing I tell drivers when some component of their robot reboots during a match is to take it easy on the driving when it finally comes back.
If the robot has already died once from loose wires or poor power, then drive more gently, don't jam on the controls as soon as it comes back up.
