Re: does anyone have OI and RC radio issues

All in all once all the RC Radios were upgraded and the RC's upgraded to v15 there were little to no problems with the robots working on the field. You still had interference while working off the tether and no interference on the tether but thats to be expected while working in a room down the hall, at a practice field or in the pits.
Dumb question from a Mechanical Engineer: by RC radio, do you mean the box with an antenna that is connected to the RC by a cable? Do they need the IO radio as well?
