Mini Bot Deployment

We are trying to brainstorm ways to get our minibot from our robot to the pole on the tower. We know we have to travel at least 24 inches, but we are stuck on how to do it. We have considered pneumatics, a horizontal scissor lift, and a rack and pinion set-up, but found flaws in each, the main one being size. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Best of luck to everyone in competition!
