Re: covering...
Ours is covered on front and back with heavy duty laminated paper and lexan respectively. The sides are protected by lexan. There's no covering over the top because the front covering is slanted and will also deflect anything coming from the top.

The electronics this year got the most covering out of the other years I've been on the team as far as I know. I just dread that thought of something punching through the RC during a match, still keeps me up at night.
