Re: Public Service Announcement: Ramp Bots Beware.

Our ramps have a guardrail to prevent robots from driving off the side or end. It also has a wider portion at the bottom of the ramp to "funnel" robots in.

Re: Public Service Announcement: Ramp Bots Beware.

We plan on sacrificing some excess support under our ramps for tapered guard rails on the sides.

Re: Public Service Announcement: Ramp Bots Beware.

By the way, can any teams with a ramp bring a practice ramp to BAE in Manchester? We've been practicing with our plywood practice ramp (we don't have a ramp we deploy, but we can climb rather well), but it would be nice to have some practice pit time with a ramp.

Re: Public Service Announcement: Ramp Bots Beware.

Prior to a design change, our ramps were set inside 20x20 Extruded Aluminum and made of alumalite. They took a beating but changes were made.
