I realize you're testing, but nothing on that board is a cheap replacement. If you roll the robot and weight ends up on, for example, the analog breakout, it will bend and/or break.

As you may have noticed, we did have people running back and forth to help keep the bot from tipping. We actually did tip the bot during this testing (the spotters weren't paying enough attention), but luckily the only damage was one of the screws on the D-sub connector got bent. We are done testing over the bump until everything is in its final place.
