Re: pic: Air Suspension

It's not just your bumper zone you can throw out of whack with a design like that, it's your whole profile!
We had a drop down wheel this year that raised the front of our robot up ever so slightly, & when we measured it, the bot was out of profile with the wheel in the down position. We had to cut our frame depth (front to back) a bit so that when it leaned back it was still in profile.
Just one more thing to consider.
