I'm praying for our crate. We were trying to stuff in everything we might need for Atlanta. We ended up wrapping half of our two-part crate seperately with packing wrap to try to keep everything in and off the robot. Even worse, one of the locks (it's a metal crate) failed, and so the two parts of the crate are being held together by latches. The safety of our six weeks of work is in serious jeapordy.

As long as your controls are not trusting their life on a strip of Velcro than this looks reasonable enough to me. If the controls have to go in the crate I would prefer the bat imitation as opposed leaving it to a toolbox to come loose during transport.

I believe it'll all be fine, my team was even swinging from the 2x4 during uncrating. Plus I doubled the amount of zip ties that's keeping the OI to the hooks.
