Best use of no robot size limits?
 

This year was (as far as I know) the first year that we saw a removal of robot size limits while on the field (provided that the robot was still under 78" tall.) I'm curious what the best usages of this limit have been, if any. So far, all I've seen are gigantic arms which extend to grab recycling containers from the step. Anyone else?

There have been a variety of robots with two or more chassis, attached with either passive or wiring tethers. Batman and Robin (and Alfred) is far and away the best execution I've seen yet.

So far, I haven't seen any "conveyor belt" robots, in which (for example) the main part of the robot squats on the near scoring platform, and a conveyor belt (either active or passive) carries totes from the right side chute to the stacker/scorer, though I still expect to see at least one.

My favorite use of unlimited size would have to be the ramps that some robots use. I think that unpowered "tools" are awesome. It would be cool to see FIRST allow specifically for things like this in the future.

all of the 2 or 4 container grabbers for auto are some of my favorites, as are the aformentioned Batman & Robin. I also like 1114's ramp
