Center of Gravity
As much as possible, you should keep the payload center of gravity centered on the Pioneer
LX, and as low (close to the platform top) as possible. This will give you the best stability, par-
ticularly when crossing thresholds or irregularities in the floor.
The following figure shows the center of gravity of the platform, without payload.
