Re: Bumper "Side" Clarification
The manual drawing you have attached is clearly just like your planned robot. You'll note the black rectangle drawn on it marked FRAME PERIMETER. The FRAME PERIMETER is the thing that has sides that need to be covered. In the manual drawing, the short bumper on the side with the U cut in it is at least 8 inches long. Your bumper must also be 8 inches long because each corner of the frame perimeter must have at least 8 inches of bumper on either side of it.
In short, your CADed drawing is illegal because the bumper needs to be at least 8 inches. And yes, this does mean your robot must be 26" wide to intake a ball through the bumpers.
