If that's attached to the battery, it's illegal per <R65>.

Is the battery held in only by the Anderson connector? That wouldn't be sufficient—that battery desperately needs to be secured, to avoid it coming loose. (Consider what would happen if your robot were flipped.) Also, it might not be a great idea to put such sharp bends in the 6 AWG wire at the base of the Anderson connector (that will just increase the resistance and cause it to heat up, wasting energy in the process).
