i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

would it be possibe for a team to score 90 points during the endgame?

because if they had hooks that raised them and two robots up twelve inches off the ground by hooking onto the glass sheild thing. is there a rule prohibiting this?

what are your ideas?

Clasping onto part of the field is prohibited.

There's a few rules against that, <G32> and <G33> come to mind

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

Specifically, <G56>. (although <G32> and <G33> are also good for this)
The "glass shield thing" happens to be the alliance station wall.

Hmmmm what if the team found a way to hook to the ceiling of the arena and raise themselves up? That was my idea from the start. The whole batman idea

That sucks. But you gotta admit everyone would be in shock if someone came out and did that

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

How would you even get a strong enough arm 50 feet into the air, anyway?

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

Didnt think that far ahead.

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

Winch and catapult. Maybe a small rocket. If you must use an arm, you will likely be overweight.

Pneumatic hook launcher attached to winch. Then pick yourself and 2 other robots up and repel down upside down w/o dropping the 2 robots and then you'll be batbot.:p

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

Hmm... somehow I don't think rockets would get past the rules in the first place... But definitely a catapult.

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

Batbot ay? Hmmmm Sounds good

Re: i wish i had this idea before the ship date
 

What were you saying about a bat bot? :D
