Re: surefire ways to break you robot
I can't believe no one has mentioned this one yet.

Use an unpatched 2007 radio.

Holy cow those things were a deathtrap looking for a place to happen... Our robot attacked various objects around the shop with all the random packet loss, and the code that somehow failed to disable robot outputs when radio data was lost. Robots running at full tilt towards walls, people, tools, etc is just bad.
