over the ramp stability

Quote:
it looks a little tipsy... did you do any tests pushing against the top of it? or put it up against your old bot, see if you get pushed over
we have done a little testing........

because of the 3 d.o.f. of the arm assembly, radical changes in cg position can be made. The enitire assembly when folded down is just over 14 inches and we can navigate the ramp in that form, so we can be very tippy, or very not tippy when we want to be.
