Re: Bumper Rules on a U Bot Chassis
Before the other sharks get you on this forum, let me answer your question real quick:

You must have 8 inches of bumper extending in both directions from every perimeter-defining corner. The bumper must be backed by the robot frame, so 5 inches is not enough. Internal bumpers are not necessary, and would not be counted.

You can see the game manual for example cartoons. There are also many other threads on ChiefDelphi that explain the rules.

Good Luck!
