A loop bot that grabs the tower higher up to stabilize their ramp will not be as susceptible to the shaker schemes.

A loopy robot that grabs the tower higher is asking to be made into a pendulum. the worst loop bots will have multiple attachment points. Then you would have to match the resonance of the tower. <and risk field damage?>

Any tests on how tolerant the tower is to rosonant movement with a robot locked onto it?
