From the Discord:

Coding team. I also want to put on your radar another possible autonomous function that would be useful if you have time. If you can find a way to have the robot reliably detect a concerning amount of tipping and then have the base "drive into the tip" to bring the robot back upright, that would be quite useful for a tall robot like ours will be when extended. Not a priority, but perhaps a great side project for a coder who is not currently employed on other tasks. I am confident that you could get the required data from the pigeon, as it should have functions to separate the effects of acceleration from tipping. Another way to address the issue is to limit the acceleration of the robot so that it can't tip itself over. To be most effective, this would have to employ a range of acceleration limits that adjusts with the height of the center of gravity as the elevator goes up and down and the arm changes positions, as this would affect the center of gravity and thus how prone the robot is to tip.
