Re: Bumper or No?
You might want to consider 6 wheels. Our base is 2" off the ground and we clear the top of the ramp by about 1/4". Just a thought.

Re: Bumper or No?
A ramp contacts an arc starting at the base of your front wheel, reaching some peak(dependent on the distance between your wheels and the angle of the ramp) and then going back down towards the rear wheel. 6 wheels, this works out just between the wheels which is why it removes a large portion of the raised chassis. The bumpers In theory I suppose could follow this arc staying between the 2 1/2" and the 8 1/2" marks. As for the front and the back of your robot, 2.5" is probably high enough but you should check it out with your own design. Hope that helps.

We have 6" wheels mounted flush with the end of the frame front and back with the base running the long way. So we have 10" between wheels. Just something to think about. Good luck ~Kirk |
