Re: Check joysticks and I/O module before each match

Good advice. Our Classmate didn't show the Cypress board during our last ditch effort in quarterfinals at Peachtree so we lost the ability to deploy our minibot.
We knew about the issue before the match started, but didn't have time to reboot the computer.

Checking on the Cypress board definitely belongs on the pre-match checklist. Might not hurt to check settings such as pulled high/low... we had an issue with that setting switching back to the default which caused our minibot to deploy into our arm mid-match.

Re: Check joysticks and I/O module before each match

Our drivers had to quickly swap joysticks in one match. the driver started with one side of the robot and the arm, the other driver had the other side of the robot. They checked everything thoroughly from then on.
