Re: Ramp and Tipping

Any teams that haven't paid attention to their CG are going to have problems. Also 6 wheels aggravate the problem. Taking the ramp straight on is not to bad but, if in the rush to get up the ramp the bot attacks at an angle things get worse. Make sure you practice angle approaches with a ramp with diamond plate. It makes a difference.
