I don't think minibots are going to come down nice and easy. i would build one to with stand a fall from 122 inches. take a pole vaulters advice, hitting the ground will not be fun. ten-and-a-half feet, you would want a nice thick pad to fall on. build it so it can take the fall, and be ready to rewire if need be.
