you might want to consider something a little stronger then PVC pipe fixtures. We used some last year and it snapped like toothpicks.

Our team moved to copper fixtures this year, they don't weigh to much more and they are strong as hell.

You also have to worry about getting tangled up with other robots. It could become a large tangling hazard if it drops on top of aother robot. Says somewhere in the rules that that's not allowed. you might want to reconsider that.
