What happens if you have a robot on only one side? Would you tip over?

ya looks that way

[d.courtney]

at the moment yes, but that will likely change after the first regional

the ramp on the right, the one with Bruce C looks like its on an angle, if a robot had its wheels on the ramp would it roll off?

nope... have made a design change to stop that, and allow the ability to lift just one robot

Does your robot move? Also how does another robot climb?

we lift both ourselves and either two robots or one (once we install our outrigger) using the large cim and a 144:1 gear reduction (this same motor is used for our arm with 12:1 gear reduction, we use a clutch to choose between the lift and the arm up/down). before lifting, there is a 1 inch platform for a robot to place themselves over... hope this answered your question
