Re: pic: Coyobot 10
Did you ever try approaching the bump at an angle less than 90deg so you did not have to turn much on top of the bump?

Re: pic: Coyobot 10
How did you guys actuate your suspension? Are those pneumatics I see?
We had a very similar chassis set-up. It made for a much smoother bump experience. We used our arm to push down the center section. Initially we were using window motors and cables, but weight and efficiency issues required a different solution.

Re: pic: Coyobot 10
Yes, we tried approaching the bump at all sorts of angles, and either the robot would tip over, or it would not be able to reach the top of the bump. The latter occurred when we approached the bump at a very slight angle, nearly parallel to it. The 45 degree slopes on the bump were very unforgiving.
The middle wheels were raised and lowered with pneumatics. Raising the wheels made bump crossing much smoother.
