Shows what will happen to the trailers of robots that do not show up for a match.

Interesting.

Good Afternoon Teams,

What happens if there aren’t six robots on the field during competition? Six trailers remain in play. We’ve created a bogie wheel to allow unattended trailers to remain in play. A third rover wheel is fitted with a bushing and mounted on the trailer tongue held in place with a clip ring (available from any office supply store. If you have a practice trailer, you might want to create a bogie wheel of your own to experience how this allows the trailer to move during competition.
