Re: Will this circuit work?

JJ,
If switch number one is normally opened until you contact the tower and switch number two is normally closed until you reach the top, then this configuration should work. What remains is how to get the minibot down.
For those lurking here, the motors don't contain shunt field coils since these are permanent magnet motors. This is just a drawing.
