Re: Question about bumbers and stuff about our chassis
The configuration shown is very similar to one side of 842's robot Carmen which the GDC has stated is illegal. The corner with the angle on it has no way of being protected by bumpers on both sides as required by <R08>-I and clarified in these two Q&A posts:

There appears to be no way to make the chassis shown legally.
