i can almost guarantee you will get high centered or maybe even flip over i would conduct a lot of tests before you put that bot into play man plus you got to factor in what its capable of and what its purpose is and most likely its probably going to be defense

They've had the design since 2005. They've been a team since 2000. They've been successfully competitive since very early in their career.

Do you really think that they haven't tested it? And, more to the point, why do you think it'll get high-centered or flip? Why do you think that this design's purpose is defense?

In short, what do you know about the design that they don't know? I can almost guarantee you that they've tested this on the bump already, if it's still together, or put it together to test it and then tested it.
