Re: Team 1764
It's less of an issue this year than in years past, since all robots have to remain within the bumper perimeter, but it's probably good to throw a word of caution out there to all teams: When you have wires that are loose, dangly, billowy, or otherwise not running along a fixed, structurally sound part of your robot, you run the risk of another robot snagging your robot and yanking on it. Be sure to take that into account when designing your robot! It was a problem for the Robettes last year, and it's well worth the extra time to figure out how to avoid those problems!
That being said, it appears in the video that the wires here are running down the back and secured within the robot perimeter, which should provide as much protection for them as possible with a design like this. good job!
