Can the railing take that torque?

I admire your robot very much. Another great effort by
BMS and the gang at NBTHS.

I have to questions:

#1 Is your robot done or are you adding more goodies to
the robot as we speak?

#2 Do you thing the railing can take that torque your
machine must put into it as you lift yourself? I see
that your barrier simulator is not supported the same
way that the real barrier will be (no big gussets on
each side of your robot as is goes over the fence).

To be honest until I actually yanked on our practice
field's barrier, I was sure you would just pull the
whole thing over. Now that I have evaluated it with a
new eye, I think it may be strong enough after all.

So... have you tried it on a "regulation" barrier?

Do tell.

Joe J.
