Re: Robot Bumper/Volume
Just remember that this year, the size of the robot isn't specified, but the volume within which your robot must exist is. If you built your robot (including bumpers) to one of the two designated volumes, you won't be able to extend arms, chutes, shooters, rope climbers, etc. beyond your bumpers.
But if you build a smaller robot, then once the match starts, you can extend beyond your bumpers as long as you stay within the specified volume.
Sort of a new concept on the size specification this year. I like it!
