The red marks on the pole are at 1ft intervals.
Also, I am not actually holding the bot as it moves, just ready to catch it when it falls
Update: it drives at 2.3ft/s, so it can go the pole height (93ish inches) in 3.4 sec. This drives the motors at 87.6rpm, while max power is at 76rpm (though the power difference between those RPMs is only 1/3watt and max power is 9.3ish watts so the difference is small).
