Re: questions

This is interesting. [R28] specifies that "bumpers must attach to the Frame Perimeter of the Robot with a rigid fastening system to form a tight, robust connection to the main structure/frame (e.g. not attached with Velcro)". I think the idea is that teams may not use only velcro because it is not robust, but the statement also seems to ban Velcro totally. I don't think this was the intent, which means....

Q&A time!

Also, is there a reason why you need Velcro in addition to whatever you have? If your standard mounting system is weak enough that it needs Velcro, then Velcro will not really help.
