Re: Team Update #6
Hmm, given the concern being raised about having to get a NXT brick to get the robot down, I hope the GDC will allow a small kite string like tether for your minibot. Pulling the robot down would be easy enough, and a string doesn't add any advantage in the race portion.

Right now the rule is you can't violate the 12"x12"x12" volume so a string would be in violation, but if they could make an exception for non-powered tethers it would make it relatively simple to get the robots back down.
