Re: Brownout Prevention?

We anticipated having brownouts, but never saw them. As a preventative measure, the code would check if there was a brownout (using DriverStation.isBrownedOut()) and then throttle down on the drivetrain if so. The arm would also measure current and stop if it detected a stall.
