Re: Tipping over.

I know that many bots flipped over last year....just look at Wildstang's teaser! If you hit someone with their huge arm at full up, and they fall over, that is legal as far as I know. FIRST doesn't want people with pneumatically actuated plates to "spatulate" robots, and other things like that.

I know that two of the three matches we lost the whole time at VCU were due to flipped alliances. One was the last match in seeding, which caused us to loose the #1 seed. The other was in the second match of the finals, which set the stage for a great third match!
