Re: [FTC]: De-energizing a Hitech Servo

The watchdog actually only exists for the DC motors, not servos.

NI is planning a patch to address the current behavior that forces servos to go limp when the FCS issues a disable signal. This will help robots hold up crates after the match ends. It will also help certain robots that require energized servos to stay within the size constraints at the start of the match.
