The tipping was entirely the result of the unplugged gyro that manages our decent. We have never had that happen before or since. We were stable in many crossings the rest of the tournament. I can't really envision a situation where a bump from another robot could cause it. It was the result of too much speed on the down side of the bump, and another robot would have to be pushing us from behind on the down side of the bump, which would be both difficult and penalized. Any contact from in front of us would only make it less likely. We don't foresee this ever happening again.
