Go to Post FIRST is again mirroring real life. And in real life, when we build and design robotic and automated systems, it's safety first. Hitting a human in real life loses a lot more than 30 points. - Fred Agnir [more]

The latter is the the only thing they're in danger of. I think they can solve that by tilting the base vertical sooner, before that claw is fully engaged with the tower. It might require some frame adjustments so the wheels are still on the ground and they can still back away in a controlled fashion, though.
