Re: BUMPERS ARE INCLUDED IN ROBOT VOLUME THIS YEAR!
This happened to my team our rookie year. We were 1/8 of an inch too wide in X and Y (As the lone mentor, I thought it best to make as big a bot as we could!) When we didn't fit in that blasted box we had to tear down and cut an inch in both dimensions (C-channel kit bot - 2012). It was a cascading nightmare. By the time we got the thing back together and inspected, it was Saturday morning. We "participated" in exactly 3 matches that year.
FRC almost lost me right there. We need to do what we can to warn rookies of these constraints.
