[FTC]: Samantha - Connectivity at Comps

[ethan_orion]

Dear Teams,

At the Montana state championship several robots experienced connectivity issues with the Samantha module. There were some suggestions that when in defensive positions (pushing) that the added resistance increases the draw from the batteries and caused the Samantha to discount from the FCS.

Have other teams experienced this?

Any thoughts on other potential flaws in the systems, electronics/powering that could have caused the drops in samantha connections?

Thanks,

Ethan
