Re: Dimentions

The TRANSPORT CONFIGURATION dimensions have nothing to do with the front, too, or sides of the robot. They only define the box the robot has to fit in while being moved around the arena. For those purposes, the 28" dimensions are considered the width, as they will fit through the normal width of a standard door opening. This means that you may need to put the robot sideways on the cart in order to fit through the doors, or in some rare cases the robot may be longer than it it tall and be laying on its back!

There have been several Q&A questions about the TRANSPORT CONFIGURATION, I suggest you read the answers to those on the official Q&A.
