 Honestly though, having a cave would be one of the greatest places to build a robot. There's already lack of light and lots of floor space! Well, if you have a good cave sponsor, that is. - Bryce Clegg [more] |

Re: Designing arms against buckling
If a robot is not interfered with, I agree the torsional stresses are relatively low. However you can bet the other alliance is going to be hitting your robot and arm. This is going to cause major torques on the arm. IF a team has not designed for this, they could be looking at some ugly twisted metal. Last year most teams where fighting for the platform and we could cap with out interference . This year interference is part of the game and we are going to have a good amount of weight hanging out there. We're adding reinforcements to deal with it, but we're worried.
