Re: Bumps or Tunnels
Our Robot can both go over the bump, and through the tunnel.

We go over the bump pretty easily. We don't have to do much other than square up a little and then drive over it like wasn't there . If we go fast enough over it's scary seeing it FLY over the bump, and then land flat on all wheels on the other side. It has been tested, and is robust enough to handle that.
