Re: belaying device

If the two attaching points are above the CG, then it should be stable. Make sure they are above the CG. This is a good point you made...since the example robot in the game manual does not have anything above the chassis, the belay points are on the chassis. On a real robot, they should be higher. The example robot is a lousy example of where to place the lifting points.
