Sidecar Brownout causing motors to move

We were testing our drive today with a dead battery accidentally, and whenever we would reverse the drive we could see the sidecar was browning out. We know not to do this, but when it happened all the Talons would turn on backwards for a split second. It this the expected behavior for a sidecar brownout, or do we have a bad sidecar?
