One nice feature of low bar robots is that they have a nice flat surface upon which they can lay upside down.

Ah, not all low bar robots have this luxury. http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/43204

Not an issue for us though, we have a very low centre of gravity through only having about 5mm of ground clearance

Yes, you do. When the intake arm is lowered, the top is pretty flat. Nice robot though!

Re: pic: Oops.

We flipped again in the finals of the Arizona West Regional after being rammed by 3853, continuing our record of never losing a regional on our wheels. We hope to make it to Einstein finals before we flip again.

Sadly the turret is higher than the height of the intake arm when lowered no one likes a squashed turret

Re: pic: Oops.

Hmm do robot's eye view count? We had a GoPro on when we flipped.

Although I was hoping not to put the "If you can read this roll me over" sticker to use.
