what would what hit? Immovable object vs unforgiving object? 90 degree angle?
Many of the non-propulsion designs I've seen look at a "ball" type object coming to landing in a shallow trajectory and bouncing/rolling to a stop. This scenario has little to do with speed and not much to do with control.

What speed do you think would be max survivable speed for a landing on the moon for a robot, or comm system?
How fast could something hit and survive?
