Intermittent connection on field only

[Jared Russell]

If you unplug the camera from the Wireless Gaming adapter, does the problem go away? Can the FTA tell if your robot is more bandwidth hungry than the others at the event?

We had a situation with the symptoms you describe happen at the Chestnut Hill District Event, and the FTA ultimately traced the problem down to a pair of particularly bandwidth hungry robots. After they changed their camera settings (lowered resolution, lowered framerate, increased compression), I believe the problems went away.

I know that there is no worse feeling in FRC than watching your robot die in the middle of the field with no discernible cause.
