Re: pic: Schreiber Take on West Coast Drive

So if I'm understanding you right 5-12fps would cover you, with a reasonable margin, for any game within recent memory I like where your design is going

Just a little thing I gambled on this year that paid off: keep your CG behind the bumper zone, not as low as possible (assuming the bumper zone isn't insanely high, of course). 96.3% of the time robot-robot contact is bumper-to-bumper and having your CG/center of inertia in the bumper zone will help keep your robot from flipping. I'll let you do the fizix.
