Think About Protecting Your Battery!
This is a good time to start thinking about the battery on robots going over the bump. Batteries have a lot of mass and are full of heavy parts like the lead plates inside each cell. Although other threads have stated that the Crio can take a lot of abuse, the battery may need some crash protection. Please check the manufacturer's specification for drop force and plan accordingly.
While you are at it, make sure that you follow the electrical rules for securing the battery in the robot. Even if you have the best robot on the field, they are not going to let you play with your battery dragging on the floor.
