Re: pic: Spectrum Fall 2013 Drive V2
Interesting, we were planning to do a one piece bumper that drops over the top of the robot. In that configuration I don't see an easy way to limit to the vertical forces that will act on the latch during impact. We had issues with the double C design because they are weaker where the two C bumpers meet. Our frame bent in when we hit the pyramid once.
