Re: R21-G Clarification (Bumper Mounting Question)
Really hard to determine from your description but here are some things you can do to determine robustness for yourself.
1. Pick the robot up by the bumpers. Does the connection hold? Then it's probably robust.
2. Kick the bumper as hard as you can several times in several places. Does the connection hold? Then it's probably robust.
3. Drive the robot into a wall at full speed. Did the connection hold? Then it is probably robust.
Okay, well maybe #3 is not practical, but those are the kind of forces you will experience on the field and wouldn't you rather have your bumpers fail in your controlled situation than have them fall off on the field and have your robot disabled?
