By putting two tubes on the minibot, and then two pins on the robot, we never had any problems with it falling off or coming loose. we used about 4 inch pins and the shorter tubes to save weight.
We have a setup like this. I'm concerned about the pins still contacting the minibot when it crosses the 18" line (we have a rather tall minibot). I guess we'll see on Thursday. We never thought to check when building it.
