Here is a complete pinout of the competition port:
1 Positive Power In
2 Unknown
3 +5V to bypass P05 countdown and disable radio (put the controller into "tether mode")
4 Unknown
5 Autonomous Enable
6 Robot Disable
7 SCLK
8 Ground
9 N/C
10 Radio serial data in (from radio tower)
11 Radio serial data out (to radio tower)
12 Channel Access Enable
13 Competition Mode Enable
14 SDA
15 Valid RX

If it's falling apart it's a mechanical problem. If it's spewing smoke it's a electrical problem.
If it's rampaging around destroying things it's a programming problem.
