Re: pic: Shot of the electrical board before it goes on the robot
Yup. The board will be mounted to the very bottom of the robot. While the important stuff is visible from above, it's not very accessible. So, we can tip the robot on its side, remove a couple of bolts from the non-hinged side, and fold the entire electrical board down to work on it if something goes wrong. Note the PowerPole connectors... they run near the hinge, with built in slack to ensure they don't get pulled tight or come apart when the board is lowered. They also allowed us to complete all of the wiring (on both the board and the robot) before putting the board on, and finish it by snapping a few connectors together.
