I checked my robot on the airplane last year but would rather not if I don't have to. What are y'alls experiences with carrying them on?

DON'T RISK IT!

1) They might lose it and that's a lot of work and money down the drain. Even if they get it back to you soon, you'd probably still miss the competition.

2) If security gives you any beef at all, you're pretty much screwed.

I don't know if it's just that my name sounds Muslim but I don't ever want take that chance.
