Or the modules themselves...
In 2010, our cRio was mounted horizontally (with the modules facing the rear of the robot), and we managed to eject our whole analog module going over the bump. No damage to the cRio, but the analog module was no longer attached.
We promptly glued the modules in with silicone, and now we always secure the module clips with clear duct tape.
