Anybody want to talk about how their robot is going to handle hitting the ramp? It's only 15 degrees, but I think that's lifting the middle of your robot 2.5 inches (if you're 36 inches long). Bonus points for addressing hitting at a angle.
Here is a formula to tell you the center clearance required to not hit the frame while moving from ramp to platform:
CC= Center clearance required
B= base distance between axles
a= angle of ramp (14.48 deg in our case)
r= radius of your wheels


CC = (B/2)sin(a/2) - r(1/cos(a/2) - 1)

Maybe I shold have posted this in the technical forum?
