Re: Looking for Last Minute Fixes on a Possible "Comm" Error

This could be a battery issue. The roboRio has a brownout mode where it will shut down the motors to preserve communications when the voltage gets below 6.8 V. If your using some old or not fully charged batteries you may be running into this. The battery voltage then recovers a bit later with no motor current draws and you pickup some control.
