Have you had any positions with the robot being tippy? Seems like theres alot of weight up high. Beautiful robot this year guys, can't wait to see it in a few weeks.

Looks great! How much does your manipulator weigh? I'm guessing 15 pounds. I'm glad to see you guys using a telescoping tower.

Construction Orange and Black! Love it!

How's you're weight distribution? How much of an angle do you have to put on your robot relative to the ground before it tips (center of gravity is outside of the area of support)?

We placed as much of our weight as low as possible to keep from having issues with CG. We went to a pre-season competition over in Kissimmee on Saturday and she ran great. it did seem to come close to tipping on only one occasion entirely due to driving into the overpass, but when this occured our rear bumper acted like a wheelie-bar and we rocked back onto all 6 wheels. we were able to drive around the corner at near top speeds with the ball at hurdle-height and had no problems.
